I see binary data.
Here's some strace output from mc:
stat64("/usr/share/doc/cmake/CMakeLists.txt.gz", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644,
st_size=5051, ...}) = 0
pipe([5, 8]) = 0
clone(child_stack=0,
flags=CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID|CLONE_CHILD_SETTID|SIGCHLD,
child_tidptr=0xb7c666f8) = 17009
close(8) = 0
fstat64(5, {st_mode=S_IFIFO|0600, st_size=0, ...}) = 0
mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1,
0) = 0xb7f51000
read(5, sh: file: command not found
"", 1024) = 0
After installing file (sudo apt-get install file) it I see text immediately.
