NAME
gzgrep, gzegrep, gzfgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression
SYNOPSIS
gzgrep
[ grep_options ]
[ -e ] pattern
filename...
DESCRIPTION
Gzgrep
is used to invoke the
grep
on compress'ed or gzip'ed 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
gzgrep
is invoked as
gzegrep
or
gzfgrep
then
egrep
or
fgrep
is used instead of
grep.
If the GREP environment variable is set,
gzgrep
uses it as the
grep
program to be invoked. For example:
for sh: GREP=fgrep gzgrep string files
for csh: (setenv GREP fgrep; gzgrep string files)
