+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B xzless
+.RI [ file ...]
+.br
+.B lzless
+.RI [ file ...]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B xzless
+is a filter that displays text from compressed files to a terminal.
+It works on files compressed with
+.BR xz (1)
+or
+.BR lzma (1).
+If no
+.I files
+are given,
+.B xzless
+reads from standard input.
+.PP
+.B xzless
+uses
+.BR less (1)
+to present its output.
+Unlike
+.BR xzmore ,
+its choice of pager cannot be altered by
+setting an environment variable.
+Commands are based on both
+.BR more (1)
+and
+.BR vi (1)
+and allow back and forth movement and searching.
+See the
+.BR less (1)
+manual for more information.
+.PP
+The command named
+.B lzless
+is provided for backward compatibility with LZMA Utils.
