Hello! This is my first post to list.
I need to convert an xls file to text file, from console (cli) because
I'm trying to automate a process.
I found that only ssconvert (from gnumeric) really fits my needs,
because it's able to keep the original format of each spreadsheet cell.
My problem is the following:
I need to use the text exporter which is configurable as man page said.
But I can't find documentation on how to configure the exporter
parameters. By gnumeric GUI I know they are parameters like: end of
line, separator, quote, format (auto, preserve). I tried using gui and
it was able to export to txt in the format I want. So I like to do the
same from cli with ssconvert...
I tried ssconvert as follows:
ssconvert -E Gnumeric_stf:stf_assistant myFile.xls myFile.txt
But I need to change some parameters, at least separator, encoding, and
format.
I didn't find that how to do that in the man page.
Does anybody knows how to pass those parameters or where to find info about?
Thanks in advance,
Matías
