File compression formats

File type	Suffix	Import	Export	Description
Zip export	.zip		X	Selected files in CLC format
Zip import	.zip/.gz/.tar	X		Contained files/folder structure

Note! It is possible to import 'external' files into the Workbench and view these in the Navigation Area, but it is only the above mentioned formats whose contents can be shown in the Workbench.
