How to build front-end (GUI)

satimis · 12-01-2004, 10:22 PM

Hi folks,

What will be the program language/solution used to build the front-end, e.g. (a simple shell command)

$ wget -r -L -nH -np --cut-dirs=3 /path/to/folder

-r -L -nH -np --cut-dirs=3 , etc. are options.

Any suggestion. TIA

B.R.

you want to design and code a graphical front end for that command?

i've used gtk in the past, but you can also use kde libraries or motif.

You can use KDevelop to build KDE apps or QT Designer. Both are easy to use and the interface of KDevelop is quite similar to Microsoft Visual C++ (if you're from a Windows programming background).

Hi Harishankar,

Tks for your advice.

The example is not for practical use. I just started learning programming, Shell script and now moving to Perl and expect to learn GUI as well. That is the story. Neither I'm a Windows user anymore.
