- Grep a pattern in a compressed file (case-insensitive):
zgrep -i {{pattern}} {{path/to/compressed/file}}
- Output count of lines containing matched pattern in a compressed file:
zgrep -c {{pattern}} {{path/to/compressed/file}}
- Display the lines which don’t have the pattern present (Invert the search function):
zgrep -v {{pattern}} {{path/to/compressed/file}}
- Grep a compressed file for multiple patterns:
zgrep -e "{{pattern_1}}" -e "{{pattern_2}}" {{path/to/compressed/file}}

and|
):zgrep -E {{regular_expression}} {{path/to/file}}
