# from xlsx

Parses MS Excel binary data into a table. `open` calls `from xlsx` automatically when the file extension  is `xlsx`. Use this command when `open` is unable to guess the file type from the extension.

## Examples

```shell
> open abc.xlsx
─────────────────
 Sheet1
─────────────────
 [table 26 rows]
─────────────────
> open abc.xlsx --raw
