programming frontends

[ookami01]

i would like to get started in programming front ends for linux progs. i have always been interested in how front ends work with there command line partners and how they pass data back and forth between the two.

any help would be appreciated

and maybe even a webpage

thanks

I'm no guru at all when it comes to this...but
this page (http://www.linuxheadquarters.com/howto/programming/gtk_examples/index.shtml) might have some good examples for you.
