Summary

A user interface is the means by which a user interacts with computer software. The traditional user interface is text-based and command-line driven. A Graphic User Interface (GUI, pronounced "Gooey") forgoes cryptic command-line interfaces and applies a desktop analogy on the computer screen. It lets the user manipulate objects such as windows, icons and menus with the help of a pointing device.
