GUI for bash scripts?
Hello everyone!
I'm looking for a way to build a GUI for various bash scripts I've written.
Is there any "good" way to do it?
I've heard about python/gtk+,qt and other stuff, but I've absolutely no idea where I should look at.
Thanks a lot in advance!
Regards,
xenator
EDIT:
A web-frontend could also be a solution.
PHP? CGI?

system-config-authentication
AUTHCONFIG-GTK(8) System Manager's Manual AUTHCONFIG-GTK(8)
NAME
authconfig-gtk, system-config-authentication - GUI utility for configuring user identity and system authentication services
SYNOPSIS
authconfig-gtk [--nox] [--updateall] [--firstboot]
DESCRIPTION
authconfig-gtk provides a simple graphical user interface for configuring user identity and system authentication services. It provides
basic configuration options to handle NIS, LDAP, Kerberos 5, and Winbind client configuration.
OPTIONS
If the --nox option is specified, authconfig command line utility is run instead of the GUI.
The --updateall option forces overwriting of all configuration files not only the files affected by the changes made in the user interac-
tion with the GUI. This option can be useful in case the configuration files are broken by manual editing.
The --firstboot option is to be used only when firstboot utility runs the GUI during the first setup of the system after installation.
RETURN CODES
authconfig-gtk returns 0 on success, non zero on error.
