Thanks for this tip. I do copious scripting on *nix machines, and I had not yet discovered these tools. I can see potential for creating much more user-friendly script widgets. I've discovered these tools on our Solaris systems as well. I found install instructions for MacOSX (http://zenity.darwinports.com) in case anyone is interested.
It looks to to me that portability has been considered -- at least for modern *nix systems.

I just, last night for the first time, started playing with KDialog and shell scripting. Very nice indeed! I was easily able to create a GUI to reload the wireless drivers on an older Acer Aspire laptop, making my wife's computer administration a bit easier.
I found this thread to be very useful (English tho the URL is Spanish)

but it was for KDE3 with DCOP. Your tips in this article has me thinking about new ways to implement my script, thank you so much!

A nice introduction. I have been searching, however, for a method of interacting with a windowed app via a bash script. So my question is - is it even possible? Thanks
but not easy.
you literally would have to capture the signals being sent to the windows and process them for content humanly readable to display it.
most windowed apps on *x systems are just wrappers for cli apps.
the most heavily used windowed apps aren't though.
the wrapped cli apps are much easier to interface with, since they are designed to work with bash already.

It's a long complicated path but the end result is I need to find out how to use KDialog to actually copy a file that is selected from point A to point B. I can get the --getsavefilename to work in that the dialog appears, I can select the file in question change to a new location and click save, but all that happens is an output in konsole with no file actually being copied. So I am missing something but I don't know what.
