The deprecated aliases are lzcmp, lzdiff, lzless, lzmore, lzgrep, lzegrep, and lzfgrep. The commands that start with the xz prefix have identical behavior, for example, both lzgrep and xzgrep handle all supported file formats. This doesn't affect lzma, unlzma, lzcat, lzmadec, or lzmainfo. The last release of LZMA Utils was made in 2008, but the lzma compatibility alias for the gzip-like tool is still in common use. Deprecating it would cause unnecessary breakage.

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B xzmore
|
|
displays text from compressed files to a terminal using
|
|
.BR more (1).
|
|
Files supported by
|
|
.BR xz (1)
|
|
are decompressed;
|
|
other files are assumed to be in uncompressed form already.
|
|
If no
|
|
.I files
|
|
are given,
|
|
.B xzmore
|
|
reads from standard input.
|
|
See the
|
|
.BR more (1)
|
|
manual for the keyboard commands.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Note that scrolling backwards might not be possible
|
|
depending on the implementation of
|
|
.BR more (1).
|
|
This is because
|
|
.B xzmore
|
|
uses a pipe to pass the decompressed data to
|
|
.BR more (1).
|
|
.BR xzless (1)
|
|
uses
|
|
.BR less (1)
|
|
which provides more advanced features.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The command
|
|
.B lzmore
|
|
is provided for backward compatibility with LZMA Utils.
|
|
It is deprecated and will be removed in a future version.
