Yeah, we're kinda working on a GUI, but it's not a big priority,
because the consensus around most developers it that it really doesn't
add anything that's much useful, since Octave is primarily
command-driven anyways. The best improvement I can think is to create
a worksheet interface instead of mimicking Matlab's so-called "GUI"
(glorified terminal, if you ask me), but again, not a huge priority.

That being said, if a GUI makes you feel safe and comfortable and
cared for, probably the least bad one right now to try is QtOctave:
