--- Begin Message ---Subject: .egg files could open in archive-mode by default Python modules are often distributed as files with the extension ".egg". These are just ZIP files with a convention about the layout of the contents, as described in [1]. Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2009 15:58:42 +0100 It would be nice if Emacs could open these files in archive-mode by default, either by adding an entry for the file extension ".egg" to auto-mode-alist, or by adding a suitable pattern for ZIP files to magic-fallback-mode-alist.(Perhaps this suggestion will become moot when libmagic is integrated into Emacs.)[1] "The Internal Structure of Python Eggs"; http://svn.python.org/projects/sandbox/trunk/setuptools/doc/formats.txt -- Gareth Rees

I downloaded a random .egg file and it opened fine for me in the CVS trunk (not in 23.1).
