Newbie question ;)

I've made a perl script that read an ant.properties (-like) file and
permit to download a tarball
by a wget ; and then create directorties and untar the tarball and
apply the correct rights on directories/files.

Now i would like to know if i can do the same with groovy.
Is it easy to manipulate files/directories etc... like perl does ?

regards.
