- print lines matching a pattern in gzip-compressed files
SYNOPSIS
zgrep

DESCRIPTION
zgrep
runs
grep(1)
on
files
or stdin, if no
files
argument is given, after decompressing them with
zcat(1).
The
grep-flags
and
pattern
arguments are passed on to
grep(1).
If an
-e
flag is found in the
grep-flags,
zgrep
will not look for a
pattern
argument.
zegrep
calls
egrep(1),
while
zfgrep
calls
fgrep(1).
EXIT STATUS
In case of missing arguments or missing pattern,
1 will be returned, otherwise 0.
