Haiku

Create a recipe for xlreader, an Excel reader.

Haiku is a UNIX-like open source operating system that provides a tool called haikuporter to build 3rd party open source software.

A recipe in Haiku is a text file that the haikuporter tool reads in order to build open source software and create packages for it. The collection of recipes that may be built by haikuporter is called HaikuPorts.

If you are new to Haiku then you should probably start with these tasks:

The goal of this task is to write a recipe for xlreader.

You can find the sources on the project homepage: https://sourceforge.net/projects/xlreader/

You can find the source code of an old BeOS port at HaikuPorts, which should come in handy: https://github.com/haikuports/haikuports/files/368921/xlreader-src.zip

Important: please read the generic instructions for "recipe" tasks, as we have a lot of these: https://dev.haiku-os.org/wiki/GoogleCodeInTaskRecipe
