Processing        examples/sheet_beta.csv -> output.xls/beta

Usage

$ csv2xls -h
usage: csv2xls [-h] [-o OUTPUT] [-c] [-d DELIMITER] [-q QUOTECHAR] [-n]
               [-D FORMAT] [-k]
               files [files ...]

Put together some CSV files into a single Excel file. Basic types are inferred
automatically.

positional arguments:
  files

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -o OUTPUT, --output OUTPUT
                        Define name for output Excel file. Default is
                        "output.xls".
  -c, --clean           Delete input files afterwards, if successful.
  -d DELIMITER, --delimiter DELIMITER
                        Change row delimiter. Default is ",".
  -q QUOTECHAR, --quotechar QUOTECHAR
                        Change quoting character. Default way of quoting is
                        "that is, quoted".
  -n, --no-type-inference
                        Do not try to infer int/float/date when writing. This
                        mode is faster and preserves input data.
  -D FORMAT, --date-format FORMAT
                        Change date format used during date type inference.
                        Default is "%Y-%m-%d".

                        is to remove the common prefix of input file names.

Example: csv2xls examples/sheet_alpha.csv examples/sheet_beta.csv
