This is a SquashFS helper for Midnight Commander. Having it installed, you could
explore the content of your squashfs
files the same way you do with zip
,
7z
etc.
Notice: When you access some file via a vfs layer in mc
, the file gets
extracted into a temp dir (in order of precedence: $MC_TMPDIR
, $TMPDIR
,
/tmp
). So, it is not a very bright idea to browse into a big squashfs file
inside some ISO image: the whole squash would be extracted into the temp dir.
The code is based on the unsquashfs
tool. The package to install is usually
called squashfs-tools
. Alternative package names: squashfs
(NetBSD).
