Welcome to the forums, As im not sure of your programming history or Linux. My suggestion would be start by learning The CLI. "The Linux Command Line" by William E. Shotts, Jr. is a great free book available in PDF. As Far as programming I suggest reading the stickies in the programming section of this forum. Welcome Again!

Howdy,

Making a GUI application on Linux is easier than on Windows. Use Glade to do the GUI and write the code in Perl, PHP, Python or C - whichever you prefer.

If you're interested in Python, check out Quickly. It uses Python/PyGTK and Glade to help you build apps, er, quickly. It also links up to Launchpad so that you can push your app out in a PPA in one step.
