Is there any Mac software to handle archives (zip, rar, 7z, tar, etc.) that allows browsing?

I am looking for a software to handle archives on OS X. I know there are many of them quite easy to find, but none seems to have the most basic feature that most Windows archive applications have: browsing! I mean, most OS X unarchivers, when they open an archive, they just unzip it... then ask you for target location in the best case. What I want is something such as WinRAR or 7zip, which is basically an explorer (ie. Finder) that opens archives. What I want is precisely this! I want to be able to browse any archive without extracting it, opening files directly from the archive and then be able to modify it so that the file is *actually* modified in the archive. I want to be able to drag'n'drop a file to and from an archive to extract/add it. Those features are so useful when modifying directly JAR files contents, JAR files MANIFESTs, war webapps conf-files and so on... Thank you.
