Do you think you could explain that line for me?
find myDirToStartWith -type f --- means go to the specified directory and look for a regular file? So if I start my
grep search from within the directory where I want the search to begin than I can omit this line correct?
| --- means OR in my mind but I am assuming that in this instance it just separates two different commands?
xargs --- This will execute a command recursively?
grep in this case

GZGREP(1) General Commands Manual GZGREP(1)
NAME
gzgrep, gzegrep, gzfgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression
SYNOPSIS
gzgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename...
DESCRIPTION
gzgrep is used to invoke the grep on compress'ed or gzip'ed files. All options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is speci-
fied, 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 gzgrep is invoked as gzegrep or gzfgrep then egrep or fgrep is used instead of grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, gzgrep
uses it as the grep program to be invoked. For example:
for sh: GREP=fgrep gzgrep string files
for csh: (setenv GREP fgrep; gzgrep string files)
