Do you need a GUI for editing bash scripts? If so, there are many sources in this forum as well as the internet that can guide you, by looking for "editor". The other interpretation of your question is that you are looking to build a GUI using scripts and I am not sure whether that will work.

TKPP(1) User Contributed Perl Documentation TKPP(1)
NAME
tkpp - frontend to pp written in Perl/Tk.
SYNOPSIS
You just have to execute command line : tkpp
DESCRIPTION
Tkpp is a GUI frontend to pp, which can turn perl scripts into stand-alone PAR files, perl scripts or executables.
You can save command line generated, load and save your Tkpp configuration GUI. Below is a short explanation of tkpp GUI.
Menu
File -> Save command line
When you build or display command line in the Tkpp GUI, you can save the command line in a separated file. This command line can be
executed from a terminal.
File -> Save configuration
You can save your GUI configuration (all options used) to load and execute it next time.
File -> Load configuration
Load your saved file configuration. All saved options will be set in the GUI.
File -> Exit
Close Tkpp.
Help -> Tkpp documentation
Display POD documentation of Tkpp.
Help -> pp documentation
Display POD documentation of pp.
Help -> About Tkpp
Display version and authors of Tkpp.
Help -> About pp
Display version and authors of pp ( pp --version).
Tabs GUI
There are five tabs in GUI : General Options, Information, Size, Other Options and Output.
All tabs contain all options which can be used with pp. All default pp options are kept. You can now set as you want the options. When
your have finished, you can display the command line or start building your package. You will have the output tab to see error or verbose
messages.
NOTES
In Win32 system, the building is executed in a separate process, then the GUI is not frozen.
The first time you use Tkpp, it will tell you to install some CPAN modules to use the GUI (like Tk, Tk::ColoredButton...).
