How do you install and make an extension for Android Studio?

There's a tgz from the developer site, but I don't know how to install it.

Tgz is not tcz. A tgz is just a gzipped tar archive.

I know, but how do I install it so I can learn how to make a tcz so others can install it faster, because last time I tried, I think there was an error about a specific file missing and didn't find a solution? Maybe someone can try to install it and we make a tcz?

Instructions for building extensions are i the wiki, but you need to know how to compile and/or  install programs under Linux first.
