Hi all,
 
Thanks Rob for the suggestion, TrueZip looks so powerful! We should
definitely consider supporting it. VFS is another similar tool, but it has a
lot of overlap with our Restlet Client API. I've added your suggestions as
comments to the RFE.
 
Also, there is a related RFE that we want to explore in Restlet 1.2:
 
"Support composite representations"
http://restlet.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=71
 
Part of this feature should cover the URI addressability of composite
representations' parts.
 
Best regards,
Jérôme Louvel

I also can report good results using TrueZip to explore inside archives of
various types (https://truezip.dev.java.net/)  If you need pluggable support
for the whole suite of common archives (.tar, .tar.gz, etc.) and/or need
write access, this may be the way to go.

It's not a Restlet tool, but Apache Commons VFS might provide the low-level
file access you need and you could wrap it with a Restlet:
