Usually in /home directory. E.g. /home/Crazy_teitoku. That would be interesting, thanks!

Both tar and gzip should be included with most major distributions. Though for custom builds or lesser known ones that can pretty much vary. Especially for custom builds, if people set up their linux without it they can grab the necessary packages.

Alternatively, you can sort of get by with a simple shell script which does some sanity checks with the exception of the fact that it is much easier to code it for the command line interface as opposed to making a graphical derivative which requires plenty more sanity checks than needed.
