Convert WK3 to SLK

The WK3 file extension stands for Lotus 3 Worksheet, a spreadsheet file format developed by IBM for its Lotus 1-2-3 software. Introduced in the 1980s, WK3 files store data in cells organized into rows and columns, similar to modern spreadsheet formats. Although Lotus 1-2-3 is now discontinued, WK3 files can still be opened with software like Microsoft Excel (versions prior to 2007). This format played a significant role in the early days of personal computing and data management.

An SLK file, standing for Symbolic Link File, is a specialized file type used primarily in spreadsheet applications to facilitate data exchange. Originally introduced by Microsoft for its Multiplan spreadsheet program in the 1980s, the SLK format was later adopted by other spreadsheet software due to its simplicity and efficiency. These files are composed of ASCII text and include symbolic references to cells, allowing for easy parsing and manipulation of spreadsheet data. The primary use of SLK files is to enable seamless data transfer between different spreadsheet programs, ensuring compatibility and preserving the integrity of the data during exchange.
