Just wondering if there was a compressed package installer - I spend a lot of time decompressing stuff and the just running "sudo dpkg -i *.deb"
Any way of "sudo expandandinstall this.gz"

Of-course.

You write an alias with the 2 commands, or put in in a file with #!/bin/csh at the top, make it executable and stick it in ~/bin
