ZGREP(1) General Commands Manual ZGREP(1)
NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression
SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename...
DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. All options specified 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 the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked.
EXIT STATUS
Exit status is 0 for a match, 1 for no matches, and 2 if trouble.
BUGS
The following grep options are not supported: --dereference-recursive (-R), --directories
(-d), --exclude, --exclude-from, --exclude-dir, --include, --null (-Z), --null-data (-z),
and --recursive (-r).
