The SCM file extension is associated with ICQ, an instant messaging client available for Microsoft Windows, Apple macOS / Mac OS X and Linux/Unix. The file contains a compressed sound scheme used by ICQ for notification and other client sounds.
SCM files belong to ICQ's own resource files and are intended to be read by the client. ICQ was discontinued, so these files are now mainly encountered in older ICQ installations or archived software.
Open the file with the version of ICQ that created or used it, on its original platform where possible. The file is not intended to be opened as a normal audio file, and current general-purpose media players are unlikely to recognise it.
Because ICQ is discontinued, a compatible installation may no longer be available. Do not rename the file and expect that to make it playable.
There is no reliable general-purpose converter for the ICQ SCM sound scheme format. Its compressed contents are intended for use by ICQ, not for direct import into standard audio editors or converters.
If the sounds are needed in another format, they would generally have to be obtained from the original audio sources or captured during playback in a compatible ICQ installation.

FILCOM was a Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) utility for comparing files on PDP-10 systems. A PDP-10 Source Compare report records the lines that differ between the compared files, making it possible to review changes or check whether two files match.
The PDP-10 was a DEC mainframe computer manufactured from the late 1960s onward. Its name stands for "Programmed Data Processor model 10", and it helped make time-sharing common. Notable PDP-10 sites included MIT's AI Lab and Project MAC, Stanford's SAIL, Computer Center Corporation, and Carnegie Mellon University.
The PDP-10 architecture was closely related to the earlier PDP-6 architecture. Both used 36-bit words, and the PDP-10 extended the instruction set while improving the hardware implementation. Its instruction set included byte instructions that operated on bit fields of arbitrary size, since a byte was not necessarily eight bits.
On a PDP-10 system, the report can be viewed with a text-display utility or the system's text editor. After being transferred from the PDP-10, it can also be opened in a modern text editor if the transfer preserves its text content and line endings.
Opening the file displays the differences recorded by FILCOM; it does not restore or open the original files that were compared.
A PDP-10 Source Compare report is text output, so it normally has no useful conversion to another file format. After transfer, it can be saved as a modern plain-text file if a different text encoding or line-ending convention is required.
To obtain a new comparison in another form, run a suitable comparison tool on the original files and save or export its report. The original files are required because the report does not contain a reversible representation of them.

The scm file extension is associated with the SCHEME programming language. The .scm file stores SCHEME source code.
According to Steele and Gabriel's "The Evolution of Lisp" paper, Scheme was originally called Schemer, in the tradition of the AI languages Planner and Conniver. But the ITS operating system had a 6-character limitation of file names, so the names were shortened to PLNR, CNVR, and SCHEME. Eventually the truncated name Scheme stuck.
Scheme is a dialect of Lisp that stresses conceptual elegance and simplicity. It is much smaller than Common Lisp; the language specification is about 50 pages, compared to Common Lisp's 1300 page draft standard. Advocates of Scheme often find it amusing that the entire Scheme standard is shorter than the index to Guy Steele's "Common Lisp: the Language, 2nd Edition". Unlike the Scheme standard, the Common Lisp standard has a large library of utility functions, a standard object-oriented programming facility (CLOS), and a sophisticated condition handling system.
Scheme is often used in computer science curricula and programming language research, due to its ability to represent many programming abstractions with its simple primitives. It is also an ideal test bed for compilation and interpretation techniques since it is possible to write a simple, yet fully standards-compliant Scheme interpreter in just a few days.
Mime type used for scheme files:
text/x-script.scheme
text/x-script.guile
