ObEmacs:
M-x auto-compression-mode
(or echo "(auto-compression-mode)" >> ~/.emacs)
and then simply C-x C-f to visit a file, directory, ftp site, etc.
you can even view a .tar.{gz,bz2}, wander around the contents, choose
and modify a file and then save it back inside..
You just have to be able to use menus (esp. with xemacs) to understand
the command set.
