This library is forked from pyxl, aka python-excel, aka xlwt + xlrd + xlutils. It allows you to read / write excel97 files directly, no COM or Windows needed. For detailed information, check out the python-excel documentation(http://www.python-excel.org/).
- Image insertation support. Currently PNG and JPEG are supported. Support for other formats is on the schedule.
- Copy sheets from the current workbook or another workbook. Styles information are preserved.
- Copy cells.
- Several bug fixes of the original xlwt.
- Only works with Excel97-2003(xls).
- Python 3 is not supported currently.
- It should just work with python 2.6+. Older versions of python are untested.
