=head1 NAME

zrun - automatically uncompress arguments to command

=head1 SYNOPSIS

zrun command file.gz [...]

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Prefixing a shell command with "zrun" causes any compressed files that are
arguments of the command to be transparently uncompressed to temp files
(not pipes) and the uncompressed files fed to the command.

This is a quick way to run a command that does not itself support
compressed files, without manually uncompressing the files.

The following compression types are supported: gz bz2 Z xz lzma lzo

If zrun is linked to some name beginning with z, like zprog, and the link is
executed, this is equivalent to executing "zrun prog".

=head1 BUGS

Modifications to the uncompressed temporary file are not fed back into the
input file, so using this as a quick way to make an editor support
compressed files won't work.
