+libxls: libxls (Read XLS files from C)
libxls:
-libxls: This library can read Excel .xls files and allow you to access cell
-libxls: values and retrieve other information (like the worksheet properties).
+libxls: This is libxls, a C library for reading Excel files in the nasty old
+libxls: binary OLE format, plus a command-line tool for converting XLS to CSV
+libxls: (named, appropriately enough, libxls2csv).
libxls:
-libxls: There is a utility to convert an excel file to CSV format, or to
-libxls: formatted HTML (see the test directory).
-libxls:
-libxls: libxls2csv test.xls > test.csv
+libxls: Note: The command-line tool is, instead, named libxls2csv by this
+libxls: SlackBuild script to avoid conflict with xls2csv tool from catdoc
+libxls: package.
