Quikview
Quick View is a variety of computer programs that quickly display files. Historically, it has been described as Quikview without the “C”.
The 1989 journal of The Milwaukee Area Atari Users Group introduced a text display program called Quikview. According to Atarimania, The Quick View for Atari released in 1989 was a text viewer. It is probably the same one.
The following is a reproduction of the description screen.

TimeOut-Central is a series of 3.5-inch disks published by Resource-Central. This appears to be a product for TimeOut that runs on AppleWorks. One of these apps for TimeOut is QuikView. This opens an AppleWorks word processor file. This is also a text viewer, as the sample includes “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn”.

This is a data analysis tool. In 1993, Swedish entrepreneurs founded a software company called Quik-Tech and developed QuikView. QuikView for Windows 1.0 was released in 1994. In 1996, the company name was changed to Qlik-Tech and the software was renamed "QlikView". This was because many software products used the same prefix, making it impossible to register the trademark.
