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.

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.
