# Example of formatting using the Spreadsheet::WriteExcel module via
# property hashes.
#
# Setting format properties via hashes of values is useful when you have
# to deal with a large number of similar formats. Consider for example a
# chess board pattern with black squares, white unformatted squares and
# a border. This relatively simple example requires 14 separate Format
# objects although there are only 5 different properties: black
# background, top border, bottom border, left border and right border.
# Using property hashes it is possible to define these 5 sets of
# properties and then add them together to create the 14 Format
# configurations.
