Automatic conversion for spreadsheets

[Trevor Nichols <trevor nichols id au>]

Hi folks,

I've got a number of XLS files that I am using gnumeric to convert into
text format using a number of settings on the export wizard.  I've
looked at the code but can't figure out how to get this to be automated.

Is this currently possible?  The things I couldn't work out was how to
load up the appropriate code from the plugins to run in a separate
program that I started to write.

Thanks,
