Use Midnight Commander like a pro (2015)
Depends on the archive type and how the vfs/extfs code was implemented for it¹. It also depends on how the archive is treated if it is compressed container, which can be seen by looking at how a .tar and .tar.xz are handled for example. The zip handler is probably the easiest to understand, as it doesn't need to contend with external compression wrappers and is a simple perl script.
Implementing your own extfs scripts to wrap a simple menu around some task can be really useful, far beyond basic archives. I wrote one so that I can shuffle my todo list priorities by moving fake "task files" in to different pseudo-directories.

CTRL key stuck in Midnight Commander in 22.04
I will consider a bug report, too bad you can't submit a ticket via github.

Former Xamarin co-founder Miguel de Icaza is leaving Microsoft
I really love how relative this feels, as for me "creator of mc¹" feels like the thing I owe him most thanks for. Every now and then I work on a project that is built on the foundations from mono, but all day I work in a way that uses mc.

Clean mount lists in Linux
Also `dua`[0] is a great `du` replacement which is must faster on modern NVMe drives. Also has an interactive mode `dua i` which I'd frame as a `ncdu` replacement.

Erdtree v1.4.1 - the love child of `tree` and `du`, now with support for a configuration file to override defaults and more
Yeah erdtree won't scratch that itch if you prefer interactive apps. I personally wanted something to just give me quick visual info without spawning an entire terminal UI and learning its quirks. But if you're an ncdu person and are in the mood for a modern alternative I'd recommend checking out Dua

erdtree v1.2.0, a modern multi-threaded alternative to `du` and `tree` now with support for globbing, icons, and more
Thank you! And totally understandable. erdtree won't scratch that itch for folks who have a penchant for interactive terminal apps. As I mentioned in another thread I've gotten a lot of mileage out of the original tree program so I wanted to keep the spirit of the thing. If you want a more modern version of ncdu perhaps you might like dua!

I wrote a "12 favourite terminal tools" list-article, what did I left out that should be absolutely included?
Another one I used for years until I found dua-cli. It can be run as a TUI with dua -i for a ncdu like interface.
