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). + +SEE ALSO + less(1), xz(1), xzmore(1), zless(1) + + + +Tukaani 2010-09-27 XZLESS(1) |
