A GUI or Graphical User Interface is a way of graphically organizing information and accepting user input, typically from a keyboard and a pointing device such as a mouse. Another acronym for this concept is WIMP--Windows, Icons, and Mouse Pointing. GUI's can have buttons, text fields, pictures, or tables (among many other things).
