Hi Debianistas,

I recall stumbling upon a program in the Debian archive which was a simple GUI - a customisable row of buttons and text-boxes - and which could be hooked up to any script, as a shortcut to actually writing a gui (which i can't do).

It would be perfect for a Python program I want my non-CLI-using colleagues to be able to use; problem is, I can't remember what it's called.

Anyone out there remember?

Thanks,

John



Try out "zenity."

Which is a GTK2 cousin of python-dialog.
