wxPyGridTableBase documentation?

I'm looking at the demos involving this, and I'm looking at the wxWindows
"documentation" for this -- and I'm pretty completely mystified. I've
looked at some of the Python source and I'm still mystified. I also
searched the wiki and didn't come up with anything useful. Is there *any*
documentation on this? Have I overlooked something here?

For example, I can't see where the various 'wxGRID_VALUE_XXX' terms are
described. And in GridCustTable.py the dataTypes list has entries in it
that *seem* to be meaningful to other parts of the program, but exactly
what they mean and what their syntax constraints are is unclear. What in
the world causes the check boxes to appear, for example? What does '6:2'
mean when appended to the wxGRID_VALUE_FLOAT entry (it doesn't seem to mean
what I would have guessed)?

Any chance of some enlightenment here?

Did you see this page?

Don't shoot me but all I have time right now for is to say that the rest of the info is here:
