  Thu Jul 20 16:32:14 2006 coke [...] cpan.org - Ticket created
Subject: ack should search through archive files
ack should be able to search through .tar, .zip, .jar, .war files, etc. It should (optionally?) treat them like directories, performing the same checks on files inside the archives. It might have to deal with recursing through multiple archive files (esp in the case of .war files). Also optionally.

I'd like to, but I don't see a way to do it without making ack too heavy.
