Correct. You can view all the files in a volume that way.
What I did was install CiderPress on my PC, and if that
will open an archive then NuFX will decode it on the II.
NuFX is actually the decoding program, but it is driven
by ShrinkIt. You could actually write your own shell for
NuFX on any machine, providing you know how.  8o)
