GUI for Unix
Hey guys
Do u guyz have any idea how to create a simple GUI for unix/awk/ scripts along with facilities of input files and output files.
I'm using new Macbook 10.6 macosx. I tried Xcode3(basically c++ based aslo can use python n ruby n bash) by importing shell scripts to it and connecting with interface builder by searching the tutorials in google and you tube. but it turned out to be damn difficult (Just for a simple task).
I able to design a GUI for helloworld.
I'm trying some thing like this.
awk program action
ex: awk '{print $1}' inputfile >>outputfile
Please let me know any easy method just for simple scripts.
and I tried tkinter, pyGTk and wxPython and others. They seems to be quiet good but takes lot of time to interpret a simple command to the GUI language. Simply Just not simple for even simpler programs like the printing columns.
I'll be waiting for innovative thoughts

IGAWK(1) Utility Commands IGAWK(1)
NAME
igawk - gawk with include files
SYNOPSIS
igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ...

DESCRIPTION
Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include files'' to gawk(1).
AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in addition, you may have lines like
@include getopt.awk
in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path.
OPTIONS
See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports.
EXAMPLES
cat << EOF > test.awk
@include getopt.awk

...
