Sigh, i really ought to provide ZIP files for download by
Windows users.

the file you downloaded is drraw-2.1.3.tgz, not draw-2.1.3.gz
despite what IE may want you to believe.  It is a gzipped
tarfile, which is not a format natively known by Windows, but
tools like WinZip (as old as version 8) understand this
format.


There's unfortunately no tutorial for drraw, it should be
fairly intuitive if you know RRDtool, and if not, you should
play with RRDtool and follow its tutorial.
