Attached Link: AutoIt
I believe it's gzip which you can download free. I call it myself from within a program. To decompress - (text after ' is a comment):gzip -d -a -f
On the spaces, you're going to have to enclose such folder names in quotes e.g. from the command line:
dir C:Program Files
dir C:"Program Files"
Not sure how to do that automatically without requiring the user to quote the entries in a bat file.
You might also look at AutoIt, which will give you the ability to work with windows, automate programs etc. You already understand logic and control flow so picking up programming with Autoit, VBScript, Python etc. should be no problem. I encourage you to pursue it.
