Read this please User Interface Design For Programmers - Joel on Software and A Summary of User Interface Design Principles and think about what your program is gonna do and how you're going to use it (in terms of screens and buttons), not if its going to use sqlite ...

Also, when describing how it should work use lists , and then use paragraphs to support those list items (like headings), its like having different pages. Once you have pages/lists, its easy to see whats missing; If you find yourself having at most 1.5 list items (like I perceive in this case), you need lots more

This is what I perceive

  1. radio button to choose action
  2. I/O on action page
  3. ...
  4. profit

My suggestion, actions are submit buttons (triggers), exclusive options/choices are radio buttons ; you want to use buttons or hyperlink or submit buttons

minimalistic is a good thing, it means essential :)

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
