GUI possible in shell script..?
Hi All,
Currently my requirement is to parse through the log scripts and show the errors to the user.The only twist I got is it needs some GUI ,which is considered user friendly.
Does anyone has any idea , if GUI can be implemented through shell scripts, please let me know.
Thanks!

I'm trying to create a script that will launch firefox from a bash shell in ubuntu and perform certain tasks.

firestarter
FIRESTARTER(8) System Manager's Manual FIRESTARTER(8)
NAME
firestarter - program to manage and observe firewalls
SYNOPSIS
firestarter [options]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the firestarter command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the
original program does not have a manual page. Instead, it has documentation in html format (see below).
firestarter is a GNOME program that will help you in configuring and monitoring a GNU/Linux firewall using either ipchains or iptables.
OPTIONS
This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included
below.
--generate-scripts
Generate firewall scripts from current configuration. If firestarter is updated and you don't want to run the GUI, the scripts in
/etc/firestarter are not up-to-date. So you have to run firestarter with this option to update the scripts.
-h, --help
Show summary of options.
--lock Lock the firewall, blocking all traffic.
-p, --stop
Stop the firewall.
-s, --start
Start the firewall.
--start-hidden
Start firestarter with the GUI not visible.
-v, --version
Show version of program.
SEE ALSO
This program is fully documented in http://www.fs-security.com/docs/.
