| .SH NAME | |
| bzgrep, bzfgrep, bzegrep \- search possibly bzip2 compressed files for a regular expression | |
| .SH SYNOPSIS | |

| [ grep_options ] | |
| .BI [\ -e\ ] " pattern" | |
| .IR filename ".\|.\|." | |

| .SH DESCRIPTION | |
| .IR Bzgrep | |
| is used to invoke the | |
| .I grep | |
| on bzip2-compressed files. All options specified are passed directly to | |
| .I 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 | |
| .I grep. | |
| .PP | |
| If | |
| .I bzgrep | |
| is invoked as | |
| .I bzegrep | |
| or | |
| .I bzfgrep | |
| then | |
| .I egrep | |
| or | |
| .I fgrep | |
| is used instead of | |
| .I grep. | |
| If the GREP environment variable is set, | |
| .I bzgrep | |
| uses it as the | |
| .I grep | |
| program to be invoked. For example: | |
| for sh: GREP=fgrep bzgrep string files | |
| for csh: (setenv GREP fgrep; bzgrep string files) | |
