in2csv: Convert a specific sheet from an XLSX file to CSV.
$ in2csv --sheet=${sheet_name} ${data-xlsx}
try on your machine

The command "in2csv --sheet=${sheet_name} ${data-xlsx}" is used to convert a specific sheet of an Excel file (in xlsx format) to a CSV file.

Here's a breakdown of the different components of the command:

  • "in2csv": It is a command-line utility that converts various file formats to CSV (Comma Separated Values) format. This utility is commonly used in data processing and analysis tasks.
  • "--sheet=${sheet_name}": This option specifies the sheet name to be converted. The "${sheet_name}" is a placeholder for the actual name of the sheet you want to convert. You need to substitute it with the desired sheet name.
  • "${data-xlsx}": This is another placeholder representing the path or filename of the Excel file you want to convert. You need to replace "${data-xlsx}" with the actual path or filename of the Excel file you want to convert to CSV.

Once you substitute the placeholders with actual values, the command will convert the specified sheet from the specified Excel file to a CSV file.
