The pks file extension is used Oracle applications with support of Oracle PL/SQL technology. The pks file contains package specifications.
PL/SQL is an imperative 3GL that was designed specifically for the seamless processing of SQL commands. It provides specific syntax for this purpose and supports exactly the same datatypes as SQL.
Server-side PL/SQL is stored and compiled in Oracle Database and runs within the Oracle executable. It automatically inherits the robustness, security, and portability of Oracle Database.
These files can be opened and viewed with any text editor.
Probably cannot be converted to other formats.

The PKS file extension was used by older versions of Insight II, a life science molecular modeling environment, for files containing NMR peak intensity integral data.
Open the file in the Insight II installation that created it, using its NMR analysis tools. Insight II was designed for Unix and Linux systems, so a current desktop application may not recognize this file.
If the original Insight II environment is unavailable, the file may require conversion or data export by someone who still has access to compatible Insight II software.
If the file can be opened in Insight II, use the software's available NMR data export functions to save the data in a format supported by another analysis program.
