archive search

[vijay j.]

Is there a utility (freeware preferably, or otherwise) which can
search the files, by contents, inside a zipped archive? I have used
Zipscan, but I could use it to search only by filenames inside the
archive.

Total Commander www.ghisler.com, nagware shareware, does this and a
thousand other wonderful things for you.

There are also a zillion freeware addons to this program which makes it
even more useful. http://clubtotal.free.fr/

Have you tried ZipIndexator? It can be configured to search for
anything.

I downloaded Total Commander, and it is excellent. However, it is free
for only a month! Any other which is free?

I downloaded ZipIndexator, but couldn't figure out how can it search
the files inside an archive by the contents of the file, i.e. a
particular word or string?

Free Commander does it! (for ZIP CAB and RAR)

open free commander
select the directory where files are located (zipped or not, doesn't
matter!)
press ALT+F7 and then check the options You want.

I found this piece of SW trying to have a free substitute for Total
commander!
