Is it easy to read a line from a gz-compressed text file using python without extracting the file completely? I have a text.gz file which is aroud 200mb. When I extract it, it becomes 7.4gb. And this is not the only file I have to read. For the total process, I have to read 10 files. Although this will be a sequential job, I think it will a smart thing to do it without extarcting the whole information. I do not even know that it is possible. How can it be done using python? I need to read a text file line-by-line.

Have you tried using gzip.GzipFile? Arguments are similar to open.
