pesky little questions

howdy guys, 

I've a few smallish questions that have been pestering me. Like this
one:

compressing a file is pretty easy.  compress read %this.file (right?)
How can I get the compressed data into a script so that I can use it
there? I guess a gif would be in the same catagory.

Here's another one:

I've never made a string or block to store stuff in. Like make string!
10000. can I maybe get an example and explanation?  I can make a
string to decompress into, then work on, right?

one more for now:

extracting stuff from a block.

friends: [
    [EMAIL PROTECTED] "her"
    [EMAIL PROTECTED] "him"
    [EMAIL PROTECTED] "her"
]

how can I get a list to choose from, then use the choice? Like,

choices: 1. her
         2. him
                 3. her
1
sending to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

or something like that.

Thanks!

-tom
