tar.gz use case? #7

Hello,

would it be possible to use gzipi to index tar.gz files containing a mix of text and binary files?

In the worst case scenario tar.gz can contain foo.txt.gz or even bar.tar.gz, but these do not need to have gzipi index.

I think it's technically possible, but it requires substantial changes to the library. You will also need to repack your archive anyway, so, perhaps, it's just easier to extract everything into separate gzip files.
