I can too.... now. ;)
But if I wrote something to do this now I'd probably write it in Tcl.... easy
to make a gui that works on Linux, Windows or Mac, capabiliities similar to
perl (though with kinda retarded syntax) and trivial to make a standalone
executable on any of those platforms which is surprisingly unbloated (I've
never had one that didn't fit on a floppy yet.)
I've been working on an emulator front end so I can run the same interface off
of CD or floppy on all the machines in my house and while Tcl is an annoying
language, the crossplatformness without size or dependencies or low level
programming is kinda nice.
