If the file isn't really compressed you can always use just less(1) on it:

        % less filename.ascii

If it is compressed (as the docs of /usr/share/doc usually are), I tend
to prefer something from the commands shown below:

        % zmore filename.ascii.gz
        % zcat filename.ascii.gz | less
        % gzip -cd filename.ascii.gz | less

All these are roughly equivalent to each other.
