xls2csv.pl: Script to translate Excel files into CSV

I've created a Perl script that translates Microsoft Excel (.xls) files into
comma-delimited text files (.csv) using the Perl Spreadsheet::ParseExcel
module. 

Usage
-----

perl xls2csv.pl <excel file> [<output file>] [<worksheet number>]

Translate the Microsoft Excel spreadsheet file contained in
<excel file> into comma separated value format (CSV) and store
in <output file>.

If <output file> is not specified, the output file will have the
same name as the input file with '.xls' or '.XLS' (if any)
removed and '.csv' appended.

If no worksheet number is given, each worksheet will be written to
a separate file with the name '<output file>_<worksheet name>.csv'.

Dependencies
------------

xls2csv.pl depends on the OLE::Storage-Lite and Spreadsheet::ParseExcel
packages which are available below or from the author's CPAN
<http://search.cpan.org/author/KWITKNR/> site.
