A zip browsed as a folder, its entries listed like files

Step into a .zip, a .tar, a .7z, a .dmg, or an office file — .pptx and .xlsx are zips too — and browse the entries as if they were folders. Each entry previews with its own viewer, so a CSV inside a zip inside a bucket is still just a table, and a zip inside a zip opens the same way.

Nothing is extracted to disk: the archive's directory is read, and an entry's bytes are decompressed when you open that entry. In a bucket, a large zip is not even downloaded whole — see the cache.

A zip with no extension, or with one that says something else, is browsed all the same: the bytes say it is a zip.

rar, iso, deb, rpm, msi and pkg cannot be browsed yet.

Next: copy, move, rename, delete.
