<title>View an archive</title>
<p>There are two ways to view an archive:</p>
<terms>
<item>
<title>View all files</title>
<p>Press the menu button in the top-right corner of the window and select
<gui style="menuitem">View All Files</gui>.
<app>File Roller</app> will list all files
inside the archive. You will see their names, sizes, types, dates of the
last modification and locations.</p>
<note style="tip">
<p>You may use the column headings mentioned above (name, size…) to
sort the files in your archive. Do this by clicking on them; you can
toggle to sort in reverse order.</p>
</note>
</item>
<item>
<title>View as a folder</title>
<p>This view displays the classic directory structure. To use this, press
