I'd love to dabble around for fun, making windows and small GUIs for terminal programs. For example drag'n'drop for conversions using ffmpeg

Thanks.
I also found QtCreator and I think for my fucking around with it for the shits it seems to be perfect for now.

Gambas was literally developed to be like Visual Basic for Linux. It's not entirely the same, but it's pretty nifty if you're already familiar with VB and most of the differences are quickly learned.

Why not write a shell script instead? Bash is about as bad as VB.

I think python is one of the most used language for hacks like that?

The other very obvious thing is to use shell scripts, even if you drag&drop what do you need the GUI for?

That time is over. In the age of Linux, it is now vi(m).

Find out what everyone else is using.
Use that.
You can probably look up open source projects online and find out yourself.
