.TH ZGREP "1" "January 2021" "zutils 1.10" "User Commands"
.SH NAME
zgrep \- search compressed files for a regular expression
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B zgrep
[\fI\,options\/\fR] \fI\,<pattern> \/\fR[\fI\,files\/\fR]
.SH DESCRIPTION
zgrep is a front end to the program grep that allows transparent search
on any combination of compressed and uncompressed files. If any file
given is compressed, its decompressed content is used. If a file given
does not exist, and its name does not end with one of the known
extensions, zgrep tries the compressed file names corresponding to the
formats supported. If a file fails to decompress, zgrep continues
searching the rest of the files.
.PP
If a file is specified as '\-', data are read from standard input,
decompressed if needed, and fed to grep. Data read from standard input
must be of the same type; all uncompressed or all in the same
compressed format.
.PP
If no files are specified, recursive searches examine the current
working directory, and nonrecursive searches read standard input.
.PP
The formats supported are bzip2, gzip, lzip, and xz.
.PP
Exit status is 0 if match, 1 if no match, 2 if trouble.
Some options only work if the grep program used supports them.
