Note that the manual page of less(1) says:

Note that a preprocessor cannot output an empty file, since that
is interpreted as meaning there is no replacement, and the origi-
nal file is use

Note that the manual page of less(1) says:

Note that a preprocessor cannot output an empty file, since that
is interpreted as meaning there is no replacement, and the origi-
nal file is used. To avoid this, if LESSOPEN starts with two ver-
tical bars, the exit status of the script becomes meaningful. If
the exit status is zero, the output is considered to be replace-
ment text, even if it empty. If the exit status is nonzero, any
output is ignored and the original file is used. For compatibil-
ity with previous versions of less, if LESSOPEN starts with only
one vertical bar, the exit status of the preprocessor is ignored.

Use two pipe symbols for zless, so that zless'ing a compressed empty
file will give output rather than being interpreted as its compressed
form, which is typically a binary.

Thanks Mark Nudelman for pointing out this difference and the
suggested solution.

Add a zless script which invokes less using the lesspipe script. This is
similar to the zmore script that comes with gzip (and in fact, in most
Linux distros, zless is a symlink to that very same zmore script) but has
the advantage that you get the correct file name on the less status line,
and can use :n and :p to navigate back and forth between multiple files.
