How to use

Example:

  require "rubygems"
  require "google_spreadsheet"

  # Logs in.
  session = GoogleSpreadsheet.login("username@gmail.com", "mypassword")

  # First worksheet of http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=pz7XtlQC-PYx-jrVMJErTcg&hl=en

  p ws[2, 1] #==> "hoge"

  # Changes content of cells. Changes are not sent to the server until you call ws.save().
  ws[2, 1] = "foo"
  ws[2, 2] = "bar"
  ws.save()

  # Dumps all cells.
  for row in 1..ws.num_rows
    for col in 1..ws.num_cols
      p ws[row, col]
    end
  end

  # Yet another way to do so.
  p ws.rows #==> [["fuga", ""], ["foo", "bar]]

  # Reloads the worksheet to get changes by other clients.
  ws.reload()
