WinRAR is wonderful for viewing contents of .ZIPs and the txt files

Windows explore.exe does that already. <shrug>
Ah.. but you haven't seen how WinRAR does it, better. ;)
Sure, explorer will show the contents just fine. It will even let you take
a peek in a subfolder. But when it comes to simply looking at a document file (that it identifies with an associated icon to indicate that it would use Notepad to view it, for example) the viewer does a poor job handling files without CRs. Instead the file is just one big wrapped mess. To
read it properly, the file needs to be extracted.
But WinRAR handles both *nix type text files and dos text files equally
well.
Another thing it can do is search for strings in text files in an archive. Infact, it can do a search with a group of .ZIP files.
