Create a GUI for any script

Here’s a simple example of creating a GUI for a Python script using Tkinter — the standard GUI library for Python. I’ll demonstrate this with a basic script that takes user input, processes it, and displays output.

Example: GUI for a script that reverses a string input by the user

python
CopyEdit
import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import messagebox

def reverse_string():
    user_input = entry.get()
    if not user_input:
        messagebox.showwarning("Input Error", "Please enter some text.")
        return
    reversed_text = user_input[::-1]
    result_label.config(text=f"Reversed: {reversed_text}")

# Create main window
root = tk.Tk()
root.title("String Reverser")

# Input label and entry box
tk.Label(root, text="Enter text:").pack(pady=5)
entry = tk.Entry(root, width=40)
entry.pack(pady=5)

# Button to trigger processing
reverse_button = tk.Button(root, text="Reverse String", command=reverse_string)
reverse_button.pack(pady=10)

# Label to display result
result_label = tk.Label(root, text="")
result_label.pack(pady=5)

# Run the GUI loop
root.mainloop()

This creates a small window with:

• A text input box

• A button to process the input (reverse the string)

• A label to show the output

You can replace the logic inside reverse_string() with any other script logic to build your own GUI. Want me to help with a GUI for a specific script? Just share the script!
