=head1 DESCRIPTION
This is a wrapper for the Unix command B<diff>. It assumes that each input file
is an Office spreadsheet (.ods, .xls, or .xlsx) and tries to convert the file to
a directory of CSV files (where each CSV file is converted from a single
worksheet) using L<xlsx2csv>. It then passes the converted directories to C<<
diff -ruN >> command. Thus, formatting differences will not be diff'ed.
=head1 OPTIONS
These are options that are interpreted by B<diff-xls-text> and not passed to
B<diff>.
B<Please specify these options before file names.>
=over
=item * --transpose-csv
Transpose CSV first using L<csv-transpose> from L<App::CSVUtils>. This allows
you to do column-based instead of row-based diff.
=back
=head1 ENVIRONMENT
=head2 DEBUG
If set to true, do not cleanup temporary directories.
=head2 DIFF_CMD
String. Can be used to set path to diff command. See also
L</DIFF_XLS_TEXT_DIFF_CMD> which takes precedence.
=head2 DIFF_XLS_TEXT_DIFF_CMD
String. Can be used to set path to diff command. The defaultl is L<diffwc> if
available in PATH, or C<diff>. Takes precedence over L</DIFF_CMD>.
=head1 HOMEPAGE
Please visit the project's homepage at L<https://metacpan.org/release/App-DiffXlsText>.
=head1 SOURCE
=head1 SEE ALSO
Unix command L<diff>.
L<ssdiff> from L<Spreadsheet::Read> which also diffs two spreadsheets but
presents the result differently.

=head1 CONTRIBUTING
To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull requests on
GitHub.
Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can
simply modify the code, then test via:
% prove -l
If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your
system), you can install L<Dist::Zilla>,
L<Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR>,
L<Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR>, and sometimes one or two other
Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps required beyond
that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.

=head1 BUGS
Please report any bugs or feature requests on the bugtracker website L<https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Dist/Display.html?Name=App-DiffXlsText>
When submitting a bug or request, please include a test-file or a
patch to an existing test-file that illustrates the bug or desired
feature.
