What is the best way to download and unzip zip files? Can this be done in StaSh? I'm trying to download a CSV file from http://data.worldbank.org/.

You can use the included requests and zipfile modules. Check the documentation for more information.

@macfox2 If you want to use StaSh, download the file using 'wget url_here' and unzip it using 'unzip file_here'.
