bzfgrep: Search for lines matching the list of search strings separated by new lines in a compressed file (case-sensitive).
$ bzfgrep "${search_string}" ${filename}
try on your machine
The command bzfgrep "${search_string}" ${filename}
is used to search for lines containing a given string of characters within a file compressed using Bzip2.
Here's a breakdown of each component of the command:
bzfgrep
: This is the command used to search for a string within a Bzip2 compressed file. It is similar to thefgrep
command used for searching uncompressed files but is specifically designed for Bzip2 files.${search_string}
: This is a variable that holds the string of characters you want to search for within the file. The${...}
syntax is used to access the value of the variable.${filename}
: This is a variable that holds the name of the Bzip2 compressed file you want to search within. Just like the search string, the${...}
syntax is used to access the value of the variable.
By running this command, the system will search for lines within the Bzip2 compressed file (specified by ${filename}
) that contain the characters stored in ${search_string}
. It will then display those lines as output.
