Why you need the GUI?
I think you can write this GUI with Tcl/Tk no problem. But it's better to test firstly with no-GUI script.

I agree. Start first with the core code, and then move to the GUI version.
For the GUI you can find some hints if you launch a utility called HWTK (hw toolkit) from the Start Menu.
There you will find a few examples for GUI.
