ZGREP(1) ZGREP(1)
NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression
SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename...
DESCRIPTION
Zgrep is used to invoke the grep on compress’ed or gzip’ed files. All options spec-
ified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard
input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are
uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep.
If zgrep is invoked as zegrep or zfgrep then egrep or fgrep is used instead of
grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program
to be invoked. For example:
for sh: GREP=fgrep zgrep string files
for csh: (setenv GREP fgrep; zgrep string files)
