Looking inside zip/tar/tar.gz files (something OpenUp never did) would best be accomplished by writing a QuickLook plug-in (which probably exists.

I don’t know about any Quick Look plug-ins, but the ZipBrowser example code both provides a skeleton of browsing zip archives and demonstrates a number of modern Cocoa development techniques:

This example shows two versions of a single application: the original version of the application, in ZipBrowserBefore, and the polished version, in ZipBrowserAfter. ZipBrowser is a simple document-based application used for perusing the contents of a zip archive without having to unarchive it. The modifications between ZipBrowserBefore and ZipBrowserAfter fall into six categories: 64- bit readiness, performance and responsiveness, security, localization and internationalization, usability, and accessibility.

Download ZipBrowser 1.1 here:

You can also search for ZipBrowser in the Snow Leopard documentation, and download & open the project right within Xcode.
