Abstract
A method to add a Web-based interface to a command-line driven system is presented. Without programming, Javamatic can generate a graphical user interface, then invokes commands in the legacy system transparent ly to the user. The user interface (UT) is automatically generated as a Java applet or stand-alone interface from a high-level description o f the application, which is UI independent, using a set of UI mapping rules. The application is wrapped with an interface server; thus multi ple clients can use the legacy application through the Web. (C) 1997 P ublished by Elsevier Science B.V.
