I'm not sure what you are really after, but maybe this helps:
grml's zsh config has a nice function dneews:
% which dnews
dnews () {
emulate -L zsh
if [[ -r /usr/share/doc/$1/NEWS.Debian.gz ]]
then
$PAGER /usr/share/doc/$1/NEWS.Debian.gz
else
if [[ -r /usr/share/doc/$1/NEWS.gz ]]
then
$PAGER /usr/share/doc/$1/NEWS.gz
else
echo "No NEWS file for package $1 found, sorry."
return 1
fi
fi
}
Cheers,
gregor
