Hi V.Rudenko, Tks for your advice which works for me here. On File-manager double-clicking the tarball (tar/jz2/ etc.) can read its content on a new window without decompressing it. However I could not resolve copying a file/directory from the new window on File-manager, always complaining no image on the clipboard. Any advice? TIA B.R.
