I found another problem with Firefox jar files: trying to visit the file
`browser.jar' doesn't use `archive-mode'. It's visited in `html-mode'.
That's because the first line of the ZIP-based JAR archive contains
the file-local variable -*- line from the first file in this archive:
PK^C^D content/browser/aboutDialog.xul<?xml version="1.0"?> <!-- -*- Mode:
HTML -*- -->
This is purely Emacs problem, not caused by something non-standard from Mozilla.
We should somehow change the priorities of detecting the correct mode.
After filling the -*- line with spaces in hexl-mode, the jar file opens
normally, but visiting a file from the archive inserts the following line into
the file buffer:
content/browser/aboutDialog.xul bad CRC 1ded366d (should be b80ec225)
This will be fixed in bug#10347 by displaying the warning and error messages
in the echo area instead of inserting into the buffer.
