[ENH Request] - Need capability in BAT to read compressed files without uncompressing

[ciscohack]

Hello Experts,

Is it possible to add a feature in the upcoming BAT update where it is able to read the compressed file without uncompressing it? I see there is a pager tool name moar that has this capability but I am looking same in BAT.

If moar has this feature I don't think it's tough to add in BAT as well. looking positve
