+It can be used to process documents without an HTTP server for local browsing or

+Documents could even be preprocessed, e.g. by a Markdown processor, before being

+
+This is ssic, a Server Side Includes Compiler.
+
+ssic processes HTML documents with SSI directives formatted as SGML comments.
+It can be used to process documents without an HTTP server for local browsing or
+to generate static HTML documents to be efficiently served by an HTTP server.
+Documents could even be preprocessed, e.g. by a Markdown processor, before being
+parsed with ssic.
+
+The set of commands, tags, and variables supported by ssic is mostly a superset
+of those supported by the old [NCSA HTTPd][ncsa-httpd-ssi] and a subset of those
+supported by [Apache HTTPd's `mod_include`][mod-include-ssi].
+
+ssic uses the `CGI::SSI` Perl module for directive processing.
