I've tried doing wat u said... but it wont work, or I'm doing something wrong....
What I want to do is make the bot download a *.gz file and then unzip it to get hold of the data contained within... The .gz file is updated every hour, and it contains alot of info.

Yes it is and no it isn't.

It all depends what you want to do with them, how they interact with the shell and if you have access.

For gunzip, you can use commands provided by the compress module.

For lynx, you could use the http package provided by Tcl.
