SGML is a general-purpose markup language that provided the foundation for HTML, XML and other markup languages. An SGML document uses markup declarations and document type definitions to describe the permitted structure of its content.
The wsc file is a text-based SGML source file. Its exact contents depend on the document type definition and SGML application for which it was created.
SGML is no longer widely used for new documents, so this file format is likely to be encountered mainly in older or specialised documentation systems. The associated MIME type is text/sgml.
A wsc file can be opened as plain text in a text editor on any platform. An SGML-aware editor or parser is more suitable when the document's markup needs to be validated or processed.
To interpret the file correctly, the relevant SGML document type definition and any referenced entity files may also be required.
There is no universal conversion that preserves every SGML document, because conversion depends on the document type definition and the SGML application. An SGML-aware tool can convert a specific document to HTML or XML when suitable rules are available.
Opening the file in a text editor and saving it with another extension does not convert its markup.
