How can you convert a file to and from a .gz file - I need to convert a .gz file to an openable file to alter it and then change it back so the edited form is saved. How do I do this?

Typically a gz file extension is an ARCHIVE. That means it might have ONE file in it or MANY files in one file that is COMPRESSED. You have to decompress the file (or de-archive it) and then you can open the file or files and do whatever you need to...then you can RE-archive the file. There are many archive file formats. ZIP...RAR...GZ. GZ is typically used on Unix/Linux systems.
