A GUI, short for graphical user interface, allows users to navigate and interact with information on their
computer screen by using a mouse to point, click, and drag icons and other data around on the screen, instead of typing in words and
phrases.
The Windows and Macintosh operating systems are examples of GUIs. The World
Wide Web
is an example of a GUI designed to enhance navigation of the
Internet, once done exclusively via terminal-based (typed command
line) functions.
