Thanx for the replay
This is almost all what i need
but one thing i want to know..

as i already mention i need a grep and awk to find the directory list.
but i dont wantto use a file in between.
i have to put the standard output of this grep and awk to be put as input to the sctipt.

As you mentiond

in the last line..

This pattern generate the directory list
Code:
grep -v = $LLLTT/profile | awk '{print $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. AUTHOR
