Hi, Thank you xbin & Corona!

I put the code into a shell which is in the same folder as my textfiles. I execute it and it works! (With . showlines.sh)

However I'm not sure about the placement of the shell, my path is:
/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin

Should I put it in any bin or have it in a new ~/bin ?

And then I don't have to every time write the path of the shell script hopefully?

Some newbe questions...

/
with best regards,

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
