    You will need some sort of GUI toolkit. The most popular of these are Gtk and Qt, which were designed initially for C and C++ respectively.

    Having said that, these and many other toolkits are usable by other languages. Gtk and Qt bindings exist for many other languages:

    GTK+ - About
    GTK+ - Language Bindings

    Qt - A cross-platform application and UI framework
    Programming Language Support - Qt - A cross-platform application and UI framework

    Although these are the most popular toolkits, others exist. A popular one for scripting languages is wxWidgets:

    wxWidgets

    Gtk and Qt look different, but programming in these toolkits is generally the same. You will find documentation on the various libraries and their bindings on the websites above.

    Since you are dealing with a script, easier solutions are probably available via Xdialog, cdialog, or kdialog.

    If you'd like a cross-platform form, Java is a good alternative. Netbeans 6.8 is excellent. This IDE has many of the tools of VB.Net but in the Java language.

    Why not use the "dialog" function in bash?

    You could look up the syntax by yourself in google.
    I knew this from reading the "Beginning Linux Programming 4th edition"
    Page 75 to 81
    good luck!
