| | What is graphical user interface? - A Word Definition From the Webopedia Computer Dictionary |
 | | A program interface that takes advantage of the computer's graphics capabilities to make the program easier to use. | | | In addition to their visual components, graphical user interfaces also make it easier to move data from one application to another. | | | Well-designed graphical user interfaces can free the user from learning complex command languages. |

| | Alpha Squared - Graphical User Interface |
| | Since in our experience the computational code often pushes the boundary of humanly manageable complexity, it is essential that the user interface code be clearly separate from the computational code. | | | The interface style is oriented towards technical users with demanding calculations or exploratory computing. | | | The AlphaSquared Graphical User Interface is a set of highly efficient C++ classes designed for the interactive display of heavily numerical or very large data sets. |

| | Graphical User Interface Concepts |
| | Interfaces should clearly indicate whether the input provided by the user was accepted by the system or not. | | | Note that the users may not be currently performing these tasks using computer software applications (if you were writing an application to replace an older system). | | | Users should never have to rely on their own memory for something the system already knows, such as previous settings, file names, and other interface details. |

| | Graphical User Interface (GUI) |
| | A GUI (graphical user interface) is a graphical (rather than purely textual) user interface to a computer. | | | A system's graphical user interface along with its input devices is sometimes referred to as its "look-and-feel". | | | The term came into existence because the first interactive user interfaces to computers were not graphical; they were text-and-keyboard oriented and usually consisted of commands you had to remember and computer responses that were infamously brief. |

| | Designing a Graphic User Interface |
| | But in today's world, in which computer resources are abundant and computer users are usually non-programmers and computer neophytes, a good program is one that not only works but is also easy to learn. | | | Interface transparency occurs when the user's attention is drawn away from the interface and naturally directed at the task itself. | | | Computer programmers designed programs for use by other computer professionals and not the general public, so a generic interface permitting expeditious user input was the order of the day. |

| | The user interface in SURPAC Vision uses a number of data entry components that are commonly used in numerous other software packages. | | | Apart from entering values for the various user interface components, various keyboard buttons may be used to navigate the user interface components so that they may be visited for the entry of values. | | | Apart from the various graphics applications that must be executed from a menu or toolbar associated with a particular window all other functions that are not dependent on a special graphics window may be executed at any time from any window. |

| | Graphical User Interface |
| | Practically every program used today uses graphics as a way for a user to interact with the program because a GUI is an intuitive and efficient way to collect information from a user and to display information for a user to read. | | | Graphical user interfaces allow end users to interact with applications in a more or less intuitive manner. | | | A user interface is the way someone interacts with a program. |

| | He used "augmentation" as the opposite concept of "automatation" and meant to empower the user instead of replacing human work by computers. | | | In the 1950ies computers were rare and huge machines, and computer-users were highly-skilled specialists.These early computers were equipped with numerical "command line" interfaces. | | | Introduced in 1984, the Macintosh features a graphical user interface (GUI) that utilizes windows, icons, and a mouse to make it relatively easy for novices to use the computer productively. |
