Is there a common term for GUI applications that wrap a command-line program?

It happens everywhere with desktop programs and scripts: a GUI application wraps some command-line program to provide a visual experience to its functionality. Is there a common term that describes this kind of GUI application?

I'm looking for a technical one or two-word term, not ju开发者_如何学Pythonst "command-line wrapper application," etc.

"Front-end", maybe?

A GUI?

That's a GUI for xyz.

I think the most accurate term is "User Interface". The G and the fact that there's a command line version behind it are just details.

In the airline industry, the term CLF (Common Language Facility) is used.
