Convert SYLK to UOS

The SYLK (Symbolic Link) file extension, primarily used in the context of data interchange between applications, was introduced by Microsoft. These files facilitate the transfer of spreadsheet data to programs like Microsoft Excel. SYLK files contain symbolic representations of spreadsheet information, streamlining data import and export processes. Although their prevalence has waned with the advent of more advanced formats, SYLK files remain an important part of data management history due to their role in early software interoperability and data exchange standards.

The UOS (Uniform Office Spreadsheet) file extension is used for spreadsheets created in the Uniform Office Format (UOF), a Chinese-developed open standard for office productivity applications. Introduced in 2007, UOS files save data using XML and compression, making them similar to but not compatible with Microsoft Office Open XML and OASIS OpenDocument formats. These files can be opened by applications like OpenOffice Calc.
