(archive-tmpdir): Make the prefix of the temporary directory absolute. (file-name-invalid-regexp): New variable. (archive-zip-case-fiddle): Doc fix. (archive-remote): Make it permanent-local. (archive-member-coding-system): New variable. (archive-mode): Don't use write-contents-hooks for remote archives. Archives whose names are illegal for the current filesystem are marked read-only. (archive-summarize): Optional argument SHUT-UP makes it silent. All callers changed. (archive-unique-fname): New function. (archive-maybe-copy): Use it. (archive-maybe-copy, archive-write-file): Bind coding-system-for-write to no-conversion. (archive-maybe-update, archive-mode-revert): Bind coding-system-for-read to no-conversion. (archive-maybe-update): Remain at the same line in the archive listing, after updating the archive. Print the buffer name of the archive to be saved. (archive-extract): Mark archive members whose names are invalid as read-only. Don't set buffer-file-type. Remove the write-contents hook for remote archives. Warn about read-only archives inside other archives. (archive-write-file-member): Handle remote archives. Restore value of last-coding-system-used. (archive-*-write-file-member): Handle archives inside other archives. Save the value of last-coding-system-used. (archive-write-file): New optional variable FILE: where to write the archive; defaults to buffer-file-name, for remote archives. (archive-zip-summarize, archive-zip-chmod-entry): Support VFAT type of host filesystem. (archive-zip-summarize): Don't fiddle letter case of mixed-case file names.

;;; Commentary:

;; The Soundex algorithm maps English words into representations of
;; how they sound.  Words with vaguely similar sound map to the same string.
