Hello Fellow Experts:

I am having a lot of trouble writing a script to search through the contents
of a list of zipped files.  I have numerous files which are zipped using
gzip, and I do not have the permissions to unzip them.  I can, however,
"less" the file and view its contents as such:

        less grb1000.f2k.gz

I tried to tell Perl to "less" the file but was unsuccessful.  Does anyone
have any clues as to how I can achieve this?  Is it even possible to search
through the contents of a file using "less" or something similar?  Please
help!  Thank you.

Kind regards,
Kenny
