Nothing has to be written in hex. Judging from some of the modules the 
author used hex a lot.

I just looked at my copy of PyExcelerator. It seems to be in poor shape. 
I tried running some of the modules that have if __name__ == '__main__': 
(i.e. self-testing) and they failed with errors! And I find no visible 
documentation or working examples. Sigh.

The only thing I've used it for is parsing an existing Excel Workbook.
