GUI is Graphical User Interface, with windows, icons, mouse pointer
etc. Wenting's point is, I think, that unless you use a
rapid-application development system like Visual Basic or Delphi, code
for such interfaces is difficult and laborious to write. Since you used
QBasic before, might not Visual Basic (.NET) be the best fit for you?
C++ has a steep learning curve. I wouldn't recommend that in this case.
Microsoft's new C# language or Java are somewhat easier to learn but
are still not as convenient as Visual Basic if you wish to give your
programs a handy GUI. VB will only work on Microsoft Windows systems,
but I believe that is already the case with your existing code, so you
wouldn't be losing anything.
