In addition to post 6, I've always noticed this and have to add an extra grep to the end of lines pipe connected sequences (probably badly written ) to get the output I want highlighted. I usually use use an expression that matches every line too, so in your case I would append the following:-
Code:
........ | egrep --color -Ei "|abcd"
... so I'm matching your string abcd or a null (every line, but no character) to get all the output and colour the important characters.
You might be able to remove your existing grep -Ei 'abcd' and just use the above at the end, but it depends if that might leave too many records to be processed by your tr. By 'too many', I'm thinking of over 100,000 unneeded records, such a volume that might slow your overall pipeline.

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.
