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 termi‐
       nal.  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  pre‐
	      processing the input files to less(1).

SEE ALSO
       less(1), xz(1), xzmore(1), zless(1)
