I wrote a command line application similar for "tail" but used for xlsx (spreadsheet files), i was needed to develop another application which accept uploading xlsx files to server and generate a new one from database, for debugging purposes i was need to see quickly what's inside of these files, tailxlsx reads xlsx file and prints with ascii table to terminal some part of it

installtion of tailxlsx

go get github.com/selam/tailxlsx

remember $GOPATH/bin must be added to $PATH

parameters of tailxlsx

-r start and end row numbers (no space between them), seperated with coma default is 1,10

-c start and end cell numbers, you must give cell number instead of letters, default is 1,10

-h help
