Dear vthokienj, One approach would be to write a plug-in package for the Rcmdr package. An advantage is that data input (at least of rectangular data sets), data management, etc., are already taken care of. There are about 40 such plug-ins currently on CRAN, most with names beginning with "RcmdrPlugin.".
The GUI toolkit that's used is Tcl/Tk and the tcltk package is part of the standard R distribution. Some convenience functions for creating dialogs are exported by the Rcmdr package for use in plug-ins. A couple of relevant -- if somewhat dated -- articles are in R News < http://www.r-project.org/doc/Rnews/Rnews_2007-3.pdf > and the Journal of Statistical Software <http://www.jstatsoft.org/v49/i07>.
