QUICK INTRODUCTION
So what's the big deal about graphic interfacing?
If it weren't for this concept the PC and internet would not exist as we
know them. What do you use on a daily basis, a mouse or your keyboard?
Without GUI you wouldn't need a mouse, everything would have to be done
from the keyboard. Sound like fun? Didn't think so.
The point of this page is to investigate
and learn more about an indispensable tool that we all take heavily for
granted and as a result, fail to really utilize it to its full potential.
This page has been established to learn more about GUI
and as a result we've established the following objectives:
-
Define what is GUI and how it is different
from character oriented system,
-
Define all the terms related with GUI,
and
-
Identify important features of GUIs
-
Identify resources available in MS-Windows
-
Identify various dialog box options
So follow along as we develop this page by
learning and applying the concept of GUI.
