qlZipInfo

The tool integrates with macOS QuickLook to display the file list of a ZIP archive directly in the preview window. When a user selects a ZIP file and invokes QuickLook, the software extracts the archive’s directory structure and presents the contained filenames without opening the archive in a separate application. This functionality is built into the operating system’s preview mechanism, allowing rapid inspection of archive contents from Finder or other file browsers.

It is intended for macOS users who need a quick way to verify the contents of ZIP files without extracting them. The preview shows the hierarchy of files and folders stored in the archive, making it easier to locate specific items or confirm that the expected files are present before deciding to decompress.

The implementation relies on native macOS APIs and is packaged as a stable, core component for the platform. It does not require additional software installations or external dependencies, and it works automatically with any ZIP file that the system can read.
