+.SH SYNOPSIS

+[\fIOPTIONS\fR] [\fIGREP_OPTIONS\fR] \fIPATTERN \fR[\fIFILES\fR]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Lzgrep \- Grep wrapper for compressed files.
+.PP
+Lzgrep is a wrapper script around the grep command that allows
+transparent search on any combination of compressed and non\-compressed
+files. If any given file is compressed, its uncompressed content is
+used. If a given file does not exist, lzgrep tries the compressed file
+name corresponding to the default compressor selected. The supported
+compressors are gzip, bzip2 and lzip.
+.PP
+GREP_OPTIONS are passed directly to grep.
+The exit status from grep is preserved.
