Mike,
Use zcat (or, if that fails, gzcat) as in
zcat fn.1.gz|less
or
zcat fn.1,gz|egrep pattern
Of course, if you're already using
gunzip -c fn.1.gz|less
the above won't save you much.

Dumb question time ... One can do a less fn.1.gz directly. I would like to be
able to grep or egrep pattern fn.1.gz in the same manner. Does an easy way
exist to do that? My approach of using gunzip seems rather awkward and I just
wondered if a easier way existed?
