+
+
+NAME
+ xzless, lzless - view xz or lzma compressed (text) files
+
+SYNOPSIS
+ xzless [file...]
+ lzless [file...]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ xzless is a filter that displays text from compressed files to a termi-
+ nal. It works on files compressed with xz(1) or lzma(1). If no files
+ are given, xzless reads from standard input.
+
+ xzless uses less(1) to present its output. Unlike xzmore, its choice
+ of pager cannot be altered by setting an environment variable. Com-
+ mands are based on both more(1) and vi(1) and allow back and forth
+ movement and searching. See the less(1) manual for more information.
+
+ The command named lzless is provided for backward compatibility with
+ LZMA Utils.
+
+ENVIRONMENT
+ LESSMETACHARS
+ A list of characters special to the shell. Set by xzless unless
+ it is already set in the environment.
+
+ LESSOPEN
+ Set to a command line to invoke the xz(1) decompressor for pre-
+ processing the input files to less(1).
