Still using zenity, something like: your_program $(zenity --entry --text="Argument 1" && zenity --entry --text="Argument 2") will prompt for each arg in turn, then pass the list to your_program. Depending on the type of argument you are asking for, zenity has widgets for date entry, file selection, data lists. Equally since your script is in bash, you can use zenity directly from the script if you wish. a wrapper script which emulates the old 'gdialog' program is included, which will fallback to console dialogs if you are concerned about keeping the script usable from the terminal. Be warned however, that this script expects the old-fashioned (and rather more complex) gdialog syntax. Finally, if you want to present a more complicated interface for your data entry, you might want to consider a small Python script using PyGTK as a wrapper to obtain and pass on your data.
