Package: libspreadsheet-read-perl (0.38-1)

reader for common spreadsheet formats

Spreadsheet::Read is a Perl module that tries to transparently read arbitrary spreadsheet files and return its content in a universal manner independent of the parsing module that does the actual spreadsheet scanning.

For OpenOffice, this module uses Spreadsheet::ReadSXC.

For Microsoft Excel, this module uses Spreadsheet::XLSX (for newer files; see the libspreadsheet-xlsx-perl package) or Spreadsheet::ParseExcel (available in libspreadsheet-parseexcel-perl)

For Comma-Separated Value (CSV) files, this module uses Text::CSV (either the pure perl version in libtext-csv-perl, or, if available, the XS-accelerated version packaged as libtext-csv-xs-perl).

For SquirrelCalc, there is a very simplistic built-in parser.
