Hey Brian,

If you're running IN the Terminal.app then you already have all the UI you
really need.

Prompts and user-input are available from the command line without using any
GUI elements.

If you want to hide the workings of the script and use dialogs and such then
you probably want to use AppleScript and run your shell stuff behind the scenes
via do shell script.

Does this workflow need to initiate from the Terminal?

Or do you want the user to double-click on a script in the Finder?

Please elucidate.

Best Regards,
Chris
