Bug Description
After creating the fabrication files I compress them into a single file archive, usually ZIP format. This is what I send to the PCB fabricator, and I think it's the standard process.
Here are some examples to show this on both sides:
-Advanced Circuits/FreeDFM (http://
-GC-Prevue (http://
-GerberLogix (http://
-ViewMate (http://
-http://
Gerbview currently can only open individual Gerber or drill files, and it would be great if I could import an entire archive at once to verify everything looks good. That lets me check exactly what I'll be sending out for fabrication, in addition to making import easier since I only need to browse to pick a single file.

It is a good idea.
