Put together some CSV files into a single Excel file, in different sheets.
You can install directly after cloning:
$ python setup.py install --user
Or use the Python package:
$ pip install --user csv2xls
Outside the standard library, the xlwt package is needed, and should be automatically installed with setuptools. Otherwise:
$ pip install --user xlwt
$ csv2xls examples/sheet_alpha.csv examples/sheet_beta.csv -o output.xls
Processing examples/sheet_alpha.csv -> output.xls/alpha
Processing examples/sheet_beta.csv -> output.xls/beta
$ csv2xls -h
usage: csv2xls [-h] [-o OUTPUT] [-c] [-d DELIMITER] [-q QUOTECHAR] [-n]
[-D FORMAT] [-k]
