internal viewer/editor & virtual fs system questions

[Rudolfs Osins <rudis inka cs llu lv>]

Hello !

Is ist possible to add the internal editor syntax highlighting feature to the 
internal viewer ? So when I press F3 on a file, I get highlighted syntax.

I checked the mc documentation, but couldn't find anything on the internal 
syntaxing feature. Is there a document on the net ? I want to write a syntax 
file for log files.


The vfs question is about archiving, I guess that when I enter into an achive, 
mc dearchives the file in a temporary place and only then allows me to see 
the contents of the archive and to eventually copy the files from the tepm 
location, but wouldn't it be better if mc just got the file list from the 
archive and made a browsable tree of the archive, and only if i want to 
extract something, it would extract the achive ? It would save time, because 
the extraction on bigger files causes great delays. Or are the delays caused 
by something else ?

Thanks,
Rudolfs
