Public bug reported:
Grep Version: 2.12
Ubuntu Version: 12.10
Running "zgrep -r" reports the following message:
/bin/zgrep: -r: option not supported
Since the man page for zgrep indicates that all options are passed
directly to grep I would assume that all grep options are supported by
zgrep. If gnu zgrep does not support all grep options then the man page
should indicate this.
As a side note, BSD zgrep does support recursive search.
