'v' - LIST FILES IN ARCHIVE(S) [VERBOSE]

The view command is similar to the list command, in that it is used to display
the contents of archives.  The difference is that the view command displays
more information than the list command.

There are in fact two view commands (not counting the 'list' command); the
ordinary view command ('v') and the verbose view command ('v1').  The 'v1'
command displays even more information than the 'v' command, as is explained
below.

The list command ('l') displays the following information:

File name
Original file size
Packed file size
Compression ratio (packed/original as a percentage)
File modification date and time

The view command ('v') displays the following additional information:

 File attributes  
 File CRC         
 Compression mode 

If the verbose view command ('v1') is used, then the following additional
information is also displayed:

 Host operating system 

Note that the information in the verbose view ('v1') command will not fit on
an 80 column display.


The sample output of the view command ('v') might be:
