.SH SYNOPSIS
.B zcat
[\fIOPTIONS\fR] [\fICAT_OPTIONS\fR] [\fIFILES\fR]
.SH DESCRIPTION
Zcat \- Cat wrapper for compressed files.
.PP
Zcat is a wrapper script around the cat command that allows
transparent concatenation of any combination of compressed and
non\-compressed files. If any given file is compressed, its uncompressed
content is used. If a given file does not exist, zcat tries the
compressed file names corresponding to the supported compressors.
The supported compressors are gzip, bzip2, lzip and xz.
.PP
CAT_OPTIONS are passed directly to cat.
The exit status from cat is preserved.
