Hi, I wrote a simple perl-Tk script (based on the widget script) easily configurable which generates X-windows GUI interfaces for user/shell commands.
It is not bullet-proof but I find it useful, since it avoids the overload of programing a new GUI for each program/script I write and use interactively. I called it xcmd and those interested can download it from ftp://lince.cii.fc.ul.pt/pub/linux in deb, rpm ot tar.gz formats. Comments or suggestions are appreciated.
