Symbolic Link File (.slk)

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.

The Data Interchange Format (DIF) file extension is a standardized format used primarily for importing and exporting spreadsheet data between different software applications. Originating in the 1980s, DIF was developed by Software Arts for their pioneering spreadsheet program, VisiCalc. Despite its age, DIF remains relevant due to its simplicity and ease of implementation, facilitating interoperability among various data processing tools. Its structured, plain text nature makes it particularly suitable for transferring tabular data while maintaining data integrity across different platforms.
