NAME
     gzless - file perusal filter for crt viewing  of  compressed
     text

SYNOPSIS
     gzless [ name ...  ]

DESCRIPTION
     Gzless is a filter which allows examination of compressed or
     plain text files one screenful at a time on a soft-copy ter-
     minal.  It is the  equivalent  of  setting  the  environment
     variable  LESSOPEN  to  "|gzip  -cdfq  %s", and then running
     less.  However, enough people seem to think that having  the
     command  gzless available is important to be worth providing
     it.

SEE ALSO
     gzmore(1), less(1)
