You can do this in 'c' via the use 'gunzip -c' within your program.
Essentially you can make gunzip stream to standard out which your program
can then capture on standard in or alternatively you can capture this in a
array defined by a pointer. For an example see lines 590 - 606 of io.c in
amber8/src/ptraj/.
All the best
Ross
