DESCRIPTION
fuse-zip is a fuse filesystem, that enables any program to work with a ZIP archive as though it is a plain directory. Unlike KIO or Gnome VFS, it can be used in any application without modifications.
Unlike other FUSE filesystems, only fuse-zip provides write support to ZIP archives. Also, fuse-zip is faster that all known implementations on large archives with many files.
USAGE
General usage would look like this
| 1 | mkdir |
| 2 | fuse-zip foobar.zip /tmp/zipArchive |
| 3 | (do something with the mounted file system) |
| 4 | fusermount -u /tmp/zipArchive |
Be patient. Wait for fuse-zip process finish after unmounting, especially on a big archives.
