Yeah, I saw that afterward too ... heh, we ideally should
not be doing that kind of thing. :)

Approach I've been taking is to have either completely
self-contained examples (in pcp-doc) and/or references
to specific pcp tools in a little box in the top right
at the start. So, sheet2pcp/sar2pcp/... could get a
mention there, and then just get used inline in the tut
like any of the other pcp tools.

Great, thanks!

I thought that was a nice idea FWIW, would love to see
that in the tut (unless you have a better example already,
havent looked at the content yet).
