Quote from a message from J.M Drake in comp.lang.oberon (30 Nov 1999)

"However, the best feature of Oberon's TUI as opposed to a GUI is that a TUI
seems, to me anyway, to be a natural bridge between a CLI and a GUI. When
prototyping a project, commands can be typed on and clicked in a manner
which isn't that far removed from a CLI. But these same commands can be
rapidly incorporated into an ETH Oberon "gadget", a BlackBox "form", or a V4
"Dialog". In ETH Oberon, these command can be tied to variables on the
gadget by use of macros. (Yes, Oberon does support macros. Had to throw that
in there.)"
