Hi, I'm using zcat to list the compressed package files in /etc/setup.
zcat has problems with linefeed/carriage return as shown below:
$ zcat /etc/setup/pcre.lst.gz
usr/bin/pcre-config
usr/bin/pcregrep.exe
usr/include/pcre.h
usr/include/pcreposix.h
usr/lib/libpcre.a
usr/lib/libpcreposix.a
usr/man/man
1/pcregrep.1
usr/man/man3/pcre.3
usr/man/man3/pcreposix.3
Additional a zcat --help prints the following:
$ zcat --help
zcat 1.3
