What particular GUI environments have you worked in? What were your favorite features in these GUIs? What would you have liked to add or change?

What (if any) command-line interfaces have you used? What did you like/dislike about them? Were there any tasks you could not accomplish or where you felt limited by not having a graphical interface? Were there any tasks that you felt could be carried out more easily from the command line than from a GUI?

Expert Solution

Solution:

In this solution i have talked about Python GUI Frameworks for all platforms.

These are the GUI's Framework are easy to use and popular.

Tkinter:

It is commonly bundled with python, using Tk and is Python's standard GUI framework.
It is open source and available under Python Licence.

Favorite feature:

One of the advantages of choosing Tkinter is that since it comes by default.
There is an abundance of resources, both codes and reference books.
They make computer operation more intutive.
GUIs generally provide user with immediate, visual feedback about the effect of each action.
GUI allows multiple programs to be displayed simultaneously.
Users do not need to know any programming language.
Very simple syntax.
Its more flexible and consistent.
I think Tkinter's three geometry managers-pack, place, and grid - are much more powerful and easy to use.

Cons:

Sometimes hard to debug in that Tkinter widgets.
Some people claim Tk is ugly.
There is very little printing support.

Command-line Interface:

Likes and Dislikes about CLI:

Likes:

If the user knows the right command then this type of interface is much faster than any other type of interface.
This type of interface needed much less memory compared to other type of user interface.
This type of interface does not use as much CPU processing time as others.
A CLI does not require Windows to run.

Dislikes:

For someone who has never used a CLI, it can be very confusing.
If user can mis-type an instruction, it is often necessary to start from scratch again.

New users find operating a command line interface more difficult than a GUI.

You have worked on YFE1 (your favorite enzyme!) for awhile and know it is a serine/threonine kinase important in a crucial signal transduction pathway in the cell (not related to metabolism). You have developed in vitro and in vivo assays for its activity. You have the genetic tools to overexpress the protein and to produce mutants of the protein that show decreased function while still expressing the protein as well as RNAi to silence the gene. You know that eliminating...
