You can make the zip appear as a directory (in which you use cd, ls, etc.) by mounting it with the virtual filesystem. Mkdir foo.d fuse-zip foo.zip foo.d ls foo.d cat foo.d/README. Fusermount -u foo.d rmdir foo.d Another relevant filesystem is. It creates a view of your entire directory hierarchy where all archives have an associated directory (same name with # tacked on at the end) that appears to hold the archive content. Mountavfs ls ~/.avfs/$PWD/foo.zip # cat ~/.avfs/$PWD/foo.zip #/README. Umountavfs Many modern file managers (e.g. Nautilus, Dolphin) show archive contents transparently.

AVFS is read-only. Fuse-zip is read-write, but beware that changes are only written to the zip file at unmount time, so don't start reading the archive expecting it to be modified until fusermount -u returns. A more comprehensive solution The previous answer by @kinORnirvana is my favorite to produce a file with the content of a zip archive. Zipinfo [-1] archive.zip > archive_content.txt However, I recommend vim or emacs (not nano) if you need to browse into an archive file or even to view the content of a file contained inside it. Vim archive.zip This approach works with other archive formats too: vim file.tar vim file.tar.gz vim file.tar.bz2 With vim or emacs you can: • browse the directory structure of the archive file. • view the content of any file inside the archive file.
