                     36: .Nm
                     37: is a filter that allows the viewing of files compressed with Lempel-Ziv
                     38: encoding.
                     39: Such files generally have a
                     40: .Dq Z
                     41: or
                     42: .Dq gz
                     43: extension (both the
                     44: .Xr compress 1
                     45: and
                     46: .Xr gzip 1
                     47: formats are supported).

                     57: is equivalent to
                     58: .Nm zmore
                     59: but uses
                     60: .Xr less 1
                     61: as a pager instead of

                     66: will pause at the end of each file and present the following prompt to the user:
                     67: .Bd -literal -offset indent
                     68: prev_file (END) - Next: next_file

                     70: .Pp
                     71: Where
                     72: .Sy prev_file
                     73: is the file that was just displayed and
                     74: .Sy next_file
                     75: is the next file to be displayed.
                     76: The following keys are recognized at the prompt:
