Zip Archive Software for Mac?


The built in zip extractor is great, and i've been using Stuffit's expander for the odd archive, but all these seem to automatically extract the archive rather than having the option to just look inside it.

On the pc I used winRAR with archives and I could browse the archives without having to extract them first. I could also have quite a bit of control over creating archives eg format/splits etc.

Is there a Mac equivalent to WinRAR or similar? I'm happy to work with just the zip format rather than rar or others.

Though not a complete solution for you, I recommend the BetterZip QuickLook plug-in.

Thanks. BetterZip looks pretty good, and I like their quicklook plugin (I'd completely forgotten about the quicklook feature)
