Lets do this in stages. If you grep -n, you can get the line numbers for each start and end, and from them, you can sed -n '123,456p' file to extract the data between those line numbers inclusive. If you need to adjust the line numbers up or down, you can "ln=$(( $ln + 1 ))". Start with:
Of course, if you want to read every data line into a shell or PERL script, you can do it in one pass. Unless you have a lot of data, or a demanding boss or professor, it is not worth the effort.

zgrep
ZGREP(1) General Commands Manual ZGREP(1)NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression
SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename...
DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code:
(-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the
standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep.
If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked.
EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified.
