Netrw comes with a few supported formats, and the format is deduced by the extension of the file, which is fair, but is there anyway to configure netrw such that it will recognize new extensions as one of the supported filetypes? E.g., there are several archives that are compatible/same as zip archives, except for extra metadata attached them. The jar, ear, war, and the Flex archives (forgot what the extension is), they are all zip archives, so I want netrw to treat them that way.
Are you talking about using netrw's map for the x key? If so, look for :help netrw_filehandler for a discussion about how to write your own. Regards, Chip Campbell
