How can I create a GUI on top of a Python APP so it can do either GUI or CLI?

Question

I am trying to write an app in python to control a motor using serial. This all works in a CLI situation fine and is generally stable. but I was wondering how simple it was

Answer 1

Well, what I do is that I have a one and only bash script with the following:

if [ "${0}" == "mcm" ]; then
    /usr/bin/python ${inst_dir}/terminal/mcm-terminal.py ${@}
else
    /usr/bin/python ${inst_dir}/gtk/mcm-gtk.py &
fi

Then I create two symlinks: /usr/sbin/mcm and /usr/bin/mcm-gtk

Works very nice.
