archive-summarize

archive-summarize is a compiled Lisp function in `arc-mode.el'.

(archive-summarize &optional SHUT-UP)

Parse the contents of the archive file in the current buffer.
Place a dired-like listing on the front;
then narrow to it, so that only that listing
is visible (and the real data of the buffer is hidden).
Optional argument SHUT-UP, if non-nil, means don't print messages
when parsing the archive.
