Bzgrep
is used to invoke the
grep
on bzip2-compressed 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
bzgrep
is invoked as
bzegrep
or
bzfgrep
then
egrep
or
fgrep
is used instead of
grep.
If the GREP environment variable is set,
bzgrep
uses it as the
grep
program to be invoked. For example:
for sh: GREP=fgrep bzgrep string files
for csh: (setenv GREP fgrep; bzgrep string files)
