(Group TOOLS tasks, add info on tools GUI)

We offer a multitude of command line tools in a separate packages (scummvm-tools). Several of these tools are to be used by end users, mainly to (re)compress their data files (good for systems which have not that much storage, like cell phones).

Now, asking end users to use command line tools to perform common tasks is not quite unproblematic. We would like to make it easier for users to compress their data files, by offering them a nice graphical user interface (GUI). It  should support at least Linux, Windows, Mac OS X, ideall more. Maybe using wxWidgets, or Qt
Now, asking end users to use command line tools to perform common tasks is not quite unproblematic. We would like to make it easier for users to compress their data files, by offering them a nice graphical user interface (GUI). It  should support at least Linux, Windows, Mac OS X, ideally more. This could for example be achieved by using [[http://wxwidgets.org|wxWidgets] or [[http://www.trolltech.com/products/qt/|Qt]].


Note that the command line versions of the tools should still be available, for use in shell scripts or on systems where the GUI is not available. This likely requires modularizing the code sufficiently.
