archivemount is a FUSE-based file system for Unix variants, including Linux. Its purpose is to mount archives (e.g. tar, tar.gz, etc.) to a mount point where it can be read from or written to as with any other file system. This makes accessing the contents of the archive, which may be compressed, transparent to other programs, without decompressing them.
