F9 / C[ommand / Edit extension file
    [ User ]  [ System Wide ]   =chose one
=> see: ./root/.c~/mc.ext
=> Search "pdf"
=> find
# PDF
type/^PDF
<------>Open=(see %f &)
<------>#Open=(acroread %f &)
<------>#Open=(ghostview %f &)
<------>View=%view{ascii} pdftotext %f -

So it uses pdftotext .....

Search "zip" to see what mc would use to view *.zip
zip
pe/^([Zz][Ii][Pp])\ archive
----->Open=%cd %p/uzip://
----->View=%view{ascii} unzip -v %f

So first, I'd try *manually*: unzip -v FileName.zip
 to debug if/why mc doesn't do that ......
