pl-office-convert is a ChRIS ds plugin which converts Excel and OpenOffice spreadsheet file
formats (*.{xls,xlsx,ods}) to the plaintext comma-separated values (*.csv) format.
In pl-office-convert version 0.0.1 there are no options.
Every file in inputdir/ ending with .ods, .xlsx, or .xls gets processed and written to
outputdir/ by the same filename but with its file extension replaced with .csv.
Every other file in inputdir/ is simply duplicated to outputdir/.
WARNING: only the first sheet of every file is converted!

But for now it is a simple single-purpose program.
