Thank you also for pointing out how the forum works. I just have some questions about the code though: can you explain the parts? I don't fully understand what each part does, and than if I'd understand I could learn maybe new commands to work my files.
Thanks again.

Also I'd like to have the original file2 to be added upon with those columns from file1 that match. If there's no match, I just want the position in file2 to remain blank for those columns. Is that possible too?

zdiff
ZDIFF(1) General Commands Manual ZDIFF(1)NAME
zcmp, zdiff - compare compressed files
SYNOPSIS
zcmp [ cmp_options ] file1 [ file2 ]
zdiff [ diff_options ] file1 [ file2 ]
DESCRIPTION
Zcmp and zdiff are used to invoke the cmp or the diff program on files compressed via gzip. All options specified are passed directly to
cmp or diff. If only file1 is specified, it is compared to the uncompressed contents of file1.gz. If two files are specified, their con-
tents (uncompressed if necessary) are fed to cmp or diff. The input files are not modified. The exit status from cmp or diff is pre-
served.
SEE ALSO cmp(1), diff(1), zmore(1), zgrep(1), znew(1), zforce(1), gzip(1), gzexe(1)BUGS
Messages from the cmp or diff programs may refer to file names such as "-" instead of to the file names specified.
