zstdgrep - print lines matching a pattern in zstandard-compressed files

Authors

       Thomas Klausner wiz@NetBSD.org

zstd 1.5.6                                         March 2024                                        ZSTDGREP(1)

Description

zstdgrep  runs  grep(1)  on  files, or stdin if no files argument is given, after decompressing them with
       zstdcat(1).

       The grep-flags and pattern arguments are passed on to grep(1). If an -e flag is found in the  grep-flags,
       zstdgrep will not look for a pattern argument.

       Note  that modern grep alternatives such as ripgrep (rg(1)) support zstd-compressed files out of the box,
       and can prove better alternatives than zstdgrep notably for unsupported complex  pattern  searches.  Note
       though that such alternatives may also feature some minor command line differences.

Exit Status

       In case of missing arguments or missing pattern, 1 will be returned, otherwise 0.
