Hi Andrea,
         as for the library, it should work in Mac OS X out of the box:
just ./configure, make, and make install. If you're interested in Mac OS 9
instead, you have no such luck. It should be possible to compile it with a
decent compiler, though (CodeWarrior?).

Hmm, this is really uncharted territory for me---I'll step back and wait
for some expert...

Bye,
         Luigi

one idea is to join the xlw development effort and customize the Excel API
xlw-wrapping for the mac version of Excel.
As long as the API is similar it shouldn't be too hard. There is probably
some problem with dates since I've been told date serial number have a
different offset
