I wrote an article that appeared in the June issue of Xephon's "Oracle Update" journal that has a script written in Perl that does hotbackup and uses gzip to compress the stuff.
See also excellent book, Oracle Backup and Recovery Handbook from Oracle Press -- www.osborne.com -- worth every penny!!! Get their Oracle DBA Handbook, too. Great help especially for new DBA's.
