R help - Jan 2009 - Generating GUI for r-scripts

Hi, 
 
I have developed some scripts that basically ask for input tab-limited format
files, do some processing, and output several pictures or csv. Now I need to
have some gui to wrap on top of the scripts, so that end-users can select their
input files, adjust some parameters for processing, and select output folder or
filenames.
 
Please advice me if there is any tools or project suitable for my tasks.
 
Thanks

Daren,

I'm no expert by any means, but you might take a look at the packages fgui
and
gWidgets, as well as R Gui Generator (http://rgg.r-forge.r-project.org/).

There is also a specific mailing list for gui discussions: 
http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.r.gui.

Hope this helps,

Michael Bibo

you might take a look at package tcltk, which provides GUI tools
by binding to Tcl/Tk.  It could meet your requirements.
