Linux VPS - Gzip at end of webgrab Run

Hi Everyone, 

This may sound like a simple question but I have not been able to get this completed. 

I have the newest version of webgrab installed on my Linux VPS ,  finally after a couple of days created a working ini with all the channels needed. I have it set to complete incrementals and will have it run every other day.   I'm executing this currently via a cron job and it writes to the location I specify in an xml file. 

Is there any way to automate that after webgrab runs the incremental it will gzip the file into an xml.gz file?  

The only way I can figure to do so would be to have it run to the xml file and set a seperate cron hours later to gzip the .xml file. 

Any help would really be appriciated.

Thank you for the instruction. 

As simple as it was I just never thought of it.   Bash to run a bash was not a concept in my mind. 

You have made my life easy . 

Cheers.
