There is no GUI for configuration, and I know of no plans to add one.
 Having worked with SimNow a bit, I can tell you that the charm of a GUI
fades pretty rapidly when you want to build complex systems with lots of
cores.

That said, I know it does make the learning curve a little less steep.if
someone wanted to develop a GUI and contribute it we would gladly accept it.
