If it's a 'tar.gz' file, you can do it all with Archive::Tar (which will call on Compress::Zlib for you, for the gzipping bit). WinZip's gui seems to handle it ok ... and I would have expected the command line interface to be equally capable. You can get gzip (and tar) for Windows from http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages.html . That will give you a gzip and a tar that you can use from the command line pretty much the same as gzip and tar on nix (though you can't call tar with the 'z' option on windows). Other than that, as others have noted, you can use Compress::Zlib.
