Description
Just like with Dolphin filemanager in a GUI, I want to be able to open an archive file like a .tgz, navigate to a file inside the archive, delete it, then replace it with another file. Alternatively, I would like to edit it in-place (whether it's a binary or text file).
With MC, I can only open the archive and see the files within. When I select a file and try to delete it by pressing F10, I get an error message
Cannot remove file "...." Function not implemented (38)
I am using the MC version that's installed in Unraid server's Linux distribution based on Slackware
GNU Midnight Commander 4.8.22 Built with GLib 2.58.2 Using the S-Lang library with terminfo database With builtin Editor With subshell support as default With support for background operations With mouse support on xterm and Linux console With support for X11 events With internationalization support With multiple codepages support Virtual File Systems: cpiofs, tarfs, sfs, extfs, ftpfs, sftpfs, fish, smbfs Data types: char: 8; int: 32; long: 64; void *: 64; size_t: 64; off_t: 64;
