DESCRIPTION

33       fuse-zip is a FUSE filesystem, that enables any program to work with  a
34       ZIP  archive  as  though  it is a plain directory.  Unlike KIO or Gnome
35       VFS, it can be used in any application without modifications.
36
37       Unlike other FUSE filesystems, only fuse-zip provides write support  to
38       ZIP  archives.  Also, fuse-zip is faster than all known implementations
39       on large archives with many files.
40
41       Since version 0.3.0 fuse-zip has support for absolute and  parent-rela‐
42       tive  paths  in file names, but only in read-only mode (-r command line
43       switch). Absolute paths are displayed  under  "ROOT"  directory,  every
44       ".."  in path replaced by "UP" in directory name and "normal" files are
45       placed under "CUR" directory.
46
47       Support for UNIX file permissions and owner information has been  added
48       in version 0.4.0. See PERMISSIONS for details.
49
50       Since  version  0.5.0 fuse-zip forces open in read-only mode if archive
51       file or its parent directory is not writable.

60       3   (do something with the mounted file system)
61       4   fusermount -u /tmp/zipArchive
62

64       cially on a big archives.
