This video shows the process of adding additional functionality to quick look. 

Quick Look was introduced in 10.5 (Leopard) and allows you to view the contents of a file without opening the program associated with it. This is done by clicking on the file and then pressing the spacebar. By default quick look can view, PDFs, HTML, QuickTime readable media, ASCII and RTF text documents, Apple Keynote, Pages and Numbers, ODF documents, Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files (including OOXML), RAW camera images.

This shows how to make zip files viewable with Quick Look.
