If you don’t mind converting the Excel file to CSV, csvkit[0], which is mentioned in the list, has a tool to pipe Excel into CSV for further processing by its sibling tools.

It won’t help if you need to retain anything Excel specific, but I find it very useful to deal with any Excel files that come my way.
