Adapting zmore for the case where you specify the files to display on
the command line is not problem at all:

5,14d4

Yes, of course. But zmore is smart enough to figure out what to do with
several compression techniques, or even to handle non-compressed files
very trivially and without hassle.
'zmore' is a simple shell script which calls "gzcat | ${PAGER-more}". One

For your bzip2 files, would the following command suffice?
bzcat | less
This would be similar to handling a gzipped file with:
zcat | less
...which is essentially what "zmore" does...

I doubt it; seems kind of trivial to have a separate program to
implement 'bzcat | more`...

/etc/newsyslog.conf uses J in FreeBSD-5.1 to specify bzip2 format for
compression. zmore(1) doesn't know bzip format, is someone working on
it?
