I use WINTERP to write "shell script" like programs that interface to other
unix commands. With WINTERP can programmatically create/modify any Motif
widget you want. It even contains its own scripting language  that is
far far more powerful than csh, ksh, sh, etc.

Get it via anonymous ftp from expo.lcs.mit.edu in directory
contrib/winterp, file winterp.tar.Z; other files in that directory include
documentation, etc.
