If you're searching may text + .gzip files, you can always do this in your shell startup file...
alias grep=zgrepASKER
zgrep "testing" 123.gz 789.log
zgrep "testing" *.gz *.log
in the result how to know whether it found in .gz file or .log file
please advise
The search term shows up as
123.gz: Filename followed by a colon, then whatever the line is here that includes your search term "testing"
789.log: another line with the word testing in it.
You should probably just run the command to see what you get.

123.gz
has 10 different files(file1,file2...file10
some kind of relative path would have helped like
found testing at line 159
123.gz/file2
etc

I don't believe gzip can make an archive of 10 different files without using tar. Usually it is named tar.gz in that case.
If it is a tar archive, then you can view the files inside of it.
tar -tf 123.gz
If someone took ten files and concatenated them into a gzip file, then sorry the filenames are lost.
