cannam@89: .SH DESCRIPTION
cannam@89: .IR  Bzgrep
cannam@89: is used to invoke the
cannam@89: .I grep
cannam@89: on bzip2-compressed files. All options specified are passed directly to
cannam@89: .I grep.
cannam@89: If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed
cannam@89: if necessary and fed to grep.
cannam@89: Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to
cannam@89: .I grep.
cannam@89: .PP
cannam@89: If
cannam@89: .I bzgrep
cannam@89: is invoked as
cannam@89: .I bzegrep
cannam@89: or
cannam@89: .I bzfgrep
cannam@89: then
cannam@89: .I egrep
cannam@89: or
cannam@89: .I fgrep
cannam@89: is used instead of
cannam@89: .I grep.
cannam@89: If the GREP environment variable is set,
cannam@89: .I bzgrep
cannam@89: uses it as the
cannam@89: .I grep
cannam@89: program to be invoked. For example:
cannam@89: 
cannam@89:     for sh:  GREP=fgrep  bzgrep string files
cannam@89:     for csh: (setenv GREP fgrep; bzgrep string files)
