You can try the LWP libraries for more sophisticated http related options that you can then couple with the gzip library.
Good luck.

You can open pipes in perl. So something like
open(FILE, "wget myurl | gunzip -c|") or die "a most painful death\n";

I have a gzipped text file on a web server. Using another machine, how
can I open that text file and read it line by line with Perl? SSH is
