17 .SH DESCRIPTION
18 .B xzless
19 is a filter that displays text from compressed files to a terminal.
20 Files supported by
21 .BR xz (1)
22 are decompressed;
23 other files are assumed to be in uncompressed form already.

26 are given,
27 .B xzless
28 reads from standard input.
29 .PP
30 .B xzless

32 .BR less (1)
33 to present its output.
34 Unlike
35 .BR xzmore ,
36 its choice of pager cannot be altered by
37 setting an environment variable.
38 Commands are based on both
39 .BR more (1)
40 and
41 .BR vi (1)
42 and allow back and forth movement and searching.
43 See the
44 .BR less (1)
45 manual for more information.

48 .B lzless
