NAME
       zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression

SYNOPSIS
       zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename...

DESCRIPTION
       Zgrep  invokes  grep on compressed, xz'ed, lzma'ed, bzip2'ed 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 pro‐
       gram to be invoked.
