 Description: Convert a csv file to odf, ods, html, xlsx, or docx format.  csv2odf is a command line tool that can convert a comma separated value (csv) file to an odf, ods, html, xlsx, or docx document that can be viewed in LibreOffice and other office productivity programs. csv2odf is useful for creating reports from databases and other data sources that produce csv files. csv2odf can be combined with cron and shell scripts to automatically generate business reports. . The output format (fonts, number formatting, etc.) is controlled by a template file that you design in LibreOffice. . csv2odf is written in Python.
