CommandUI

Generating graphical user interfaces when working with command-line applications can be done using a dedicated wrapper-program, which performs the conversion semi-automatically. CommandUI was designed precisely for that purpose and it will provide users with the means of constructing GUIs for their command-line applications.

Using the interface that accepts inputs for the characteristics of the project file, one will be able to add titles, descriptions, the path to the executable file, as well as a corresponding execution directory.

Command-line arguments and components can be added in two ways: either using the dedicated button, as well as directly through the context-menu, for each of the added components.

A command-line part selector allows users to choose the preferred component, be it an input argument, file argument, multiple, optional, or choice. Each of the command-line parts can be edited individually, using a special editor, which enables one to add titles, descriptions, and most importantly, the default values.

Executing the selected application is done with a dedicated menu, which offers the option of terminating the app at any moment, without having to actually access its corresponding interface. Lastly, the hostname and count can also be tweaked, thanks to a separated, command settings bank.
