XZLESS(1) XZ Utils XZLESS(1)NAME
xzless, lzless - view xz or lzma compressed (text) files
SYNOPSIS
xzless [file...]
lzless [file...]
DESCRIPTION
xzless is a filter that displays text from compressed files to a terminal. It works on files compressed with xz(1) or lzma(1). If no
files are given, xzless reads from standard input.
xzless uses less(1) to present its output. Unlike xzmore, its choice of pager cannot be altered by setting an environment variable. Com-
mands are based on both more(1) and vi(1) and allow back and forth movement and searching. See the less(1) manual for more information.
The command named lzless is provided for backward compatibility with LZMA Utils.
ENVIRONMENT
LESSMETACHARS
A list of characters special to the shell. Set by xzless unless it is already set in the environment.
LESSOPEN
Set to a command line to invoke the xz(1) decompressor for preprocessing the input files to less(1).

The code below works for finding files created in 2005 that are compressed.
How do I delete these files?
Do I substitute rm -f for the print $0 ?
here's the code that finds the 2005 compressed files
(ls -lR | awk '$8 == "2005" && $9 ~ /Z$/ {print $0}')
thanks for your help!!! (2 Replies)
I was wondering if there's a way to search within a file that's been compressed. i.e. if file a is inside file a.zip or a.gz, is there a a command that will retrieve the string of data I'm looking for in file a, and list which compressed file it found it in?
Please help!
Thanks. (8 Replies)

How does it differentiate text files, data files and other files ?
Is there any relationship between environmental variables and file command? (3 Replies)

I am having trouble viewing these files from my unix session. vi comes back with line too long. Also an m_dump with the relevant dml comes back with problems.
How can I view this as a text file? Also is there an easy way to view specific records within. Eg I have a policy id (4 Replies)
Hello everybody,
I've seen some text documents where they publish blocks of text and tell you to save it as "file.tgz" for example, and when you decompress the file, it actually works.
How is that done? is there a program?
Because i tried cat and doesn't work, tried less, more, hexedit and... (2 Replies)
Hi
I am using "ls" command to list files present on the system. "ls" lists all the files including those which are not present. Is there a way to filter the output so only the files which are actually present are shown. For exmple, the following command lists all the files:

So, I'm back with another, pretty much similar question. I've got a catalogue, with about 60k text files. Every file contains a single line of text with variable number of characters. Here are some examples, which will make my case easier to understand:
