    Hi, I am trying to make an old GUI (like the DOS edit gui) on Kubuntu 6.06 Linux so I can ask a few questions to the user after the installation. This must be a console gui (or whatever it is called) because the user cannot log in to the X server without being prompted at least once by this gui.

    Can anyone guive me a few pointers?

    Thanks,
    Komyg

    GUI means "Graphical User Interface." Given your mention of a console interface and the MSDOS (DOS doesn't mean MSDOS, either) editor, I don't understand your question.

    Well, what I am trying to create is not actually a GUI, just called it a GUI because I don't know it's name.

    What I want to know is how can I create a "GUI" like the one you have when you use the MSDOS program edit, or when you use Linux's adept.

    I hope that this makes my question clearer.

    Thanks,
    Komyg
