Hum! That one is new to me. So now we have to use zgrep sometimes, other xzgrep... what a complication :-(
And zometimes even bzgrep.
Argh! Why so many? What's the rationale? :-/
Well, different compression methods require different uncompression methods :-) The rationale for writing the next compression method is an improved compression ratio.
Not that. It is obvious that new compression methods are found and made available. Howver, zgrep is a script (I learned that today), so I don't understand why we need having new scripts named xzgrep or bzgrep, instead of adapting zgrep. All are scripts. This is a mess. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
