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).
zless is equivalent to
zmore but uses
less(1) as a pager instead of
more(1).
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

assume gzip(1) style compression
since there is no suffix on which to make a decision.
