NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression
SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename...
DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed, xz'ed, lzma'ed, bzip2'ed or gzipped
files. All options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file
is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and
fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary
and fed to grep.
If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep pro-
gram to be invoked.
