Hello, I'm curius to know how to write user-friendly front ends to programs. I'm referring to programs like KPakage, GnoRPM, aptitude and dselect and the various setup utilities for the Apache server that wrap around a console based utility (rpm or dpkg, for example). How do I design the console based programs? Should I implement an extensive command line argument interface for them? How do I parse the output produce? What language is most suitable and easiest for writing the user-friendly interface (for instance, Tcl/Tk? Python?) ?
