    Probably the easiest way to write a GUI app would be to do so in Mono. This means it will run on any OS as long as Mono is installed.

    You will still need to know three things.

    1. What your program will do
    2. How to program
    3. A language to program in

    I assume you have already taken care of 1

    How to program is a massive subject but I would advise starting with a small goal and Google.

    Mono's language of choice is c# which is reasonably easy to pick up.

    Another choice would be Python which I understand is very easy to get going in.

    My new blog. It's probably not as good as I think it is.

    No, I'm sorry, I was with you up to 'QUOTE', but after that it all becomes hard work. Please remember that there are many here for whom English isn't a first language, and they'll struggle the gibberish you just typed. Please stick to English in your posts.

    And now for some more specific advice regarding GUI programming.

    If you're writing in C++ then use KDevelop and the QT gui toolkit, it makes life reasonably easy (and remarkably similar to Microsoft's developer environment).

    There are good tools for Java too, and these can make things very easy. But if you just want something quick and dirty, you could try a scripting language; I'm lead to believe that Python is quick and easy to learn, and it allows you to prepare dialog boxes to communicate with users.

    Also, you may find that searching through Google sometimes gives you quicker and more accurate answers than posting here - if you ask a question in the coffee lounge, expect to get as many different opinions as answers in reply to your question.
