SYNOPSIS
zmore |
[flags] [file ...] |
DESCRIPTION
zmore
is a filter that allows the viewing of files
compressed with Lempel-Ziv encoding. Such files generally have a
“Z” or “gz” extension (both the
compress(1) and
gzip(1) formats are supported). Any flags that
are specified are passed to the user's preferred PAGER
(which is /usr/bin/more by default).
When multiple files are specified, zmore
will pause at the end of each file and present the following prompt to the
user:
prev_file (END) - Next: next_file
Where prev_file is the file that was just displayed and next_file is the next file to be displayed. The following keys are recognized at the prompt:
If no files are specified, zmore
will read
from the standard input. In this mode zmore
will
assume gzip(1) style compression since there is no suffix on which
to make a decision.
ENVIRONMENT
PAGER
- Program used to display files. If unset, /usr/bin/more is used.
