What is kommander

kommander is:

Kommander is a visual dialog building tool whose primary objective is to create as much functionality as possible without using any scripting language.

More specifically, Kommander is a set of tools that allow you to create dynamic GUI dialogs that generate, based on their state, a piece of text. The piece of text can be a command line to a program, any piece of code, business documents that contain a lot of repetitious or templated text and so on.

The resulting generated text can then be executed as a command line program (hence the name “Kommander”), written to a file, passed to a script for extended processing, and literally anything else you can think of. And you aren’t required to write a single line of code!

As well as building dialogs, Kommander may be expanded to create full mainwindow applications.
