SYNOPSIS

     bzfgrep [flags] files

     lzgrep [flags] files
     lzegrep [flags] files
     lzfgrep [flags] files

     xzgrep [flags] files
     xzegrep [flags] files
     xzfgrep [flags] files

     zstdgrep [flags] files
     zstdegrep [flags] files

DESCRIPTION
     Allow grep(1) to read compressed files.

SEE ALSO
     bzip2(1), grep(1), gzip(1), xz(1), zstd(1)

AUTHORS
     This version of the zgrep utility was written by Thomas Klausner
     <wiz@NetBSD.org>.

BUGS
     zgrep(1) does not handle flags that take arguments if there is no
     whitespace between the flag and the argument, for example:

           zgrep -enfs /etc/rpc

     When more than one -e flag is used matching should occur for any of the
     patterns (similar to multiple patterns supplied in a file with the -f
     flag).  zgrep(1) only matches the last -e pattern.
