This could be done by integrating with lesspipe / LESSOPEN at first.

Please see #237

If you think there is a nice way to build a wrapper script that supports that, I'm happy to add it to the repository.

@anarcat
add zbat wrapper to decompress files automatically
5d689e2 
This relies on bsdcat from archive-tools, which supports more formats
than just gzip or, failing that, falls back to gunzip -c with a
warning.

Previously[1], @sharkdp stated that bat would not support compressed
files, but would be open in implementing a wrapper. There was another
implementation proposed elsewhere[2], but it seems overengineered to
me.
