i have it in mind that some plugins allow you to directly edit
zipped files -- if it's netrw, it probably does it under the
hood so you don't even notice -- who knows -- i may be
thinking about dolphin or konqueror -- they may look like
normal files but still actually be compressed

well you got me there -- i've never used ansiesc or the
conceal feature -- maybe it's time for someone else to help

the function and tried to run it -- is it meant to be run with
no arguments?
