Hm. You are right. It seems MC writes the file to an archive when you exit the internal viewer. Not nice at all...! This is either a bug in extfs or MC. This is what happens: (/home/usel/try2.zip has permissions -r--r--r--.) "Enter" is pressed when cursor is over try2.zip: <extfs-module> list /home/usel/try2.zip "F3" is pressed when cursor is over file bk.html in try2.zip: <extfs-module> copyout /home/usel/try2.zip bk.html /tmp/extfsQA8iFb "Q" is pressed to exit the viewer, now the file is copied back into the archive: <extfs-module> copyin /home/usel/try2.zip bk.html /tmp/extfsQA8iFb This means that every time you enter a zip archive an view files in it, the archive is modified! This should also be true for all other archives supported via extfs.
