Honestly, I didn't find the question inappropriate, unkind, rude or
anything like that. To me, it seemed like a perfectly valid question.

On the other hand, I did find your reply somewhat aggressive...

Currently, the GUI support in Octave is quite weak. On Unix-like systems
you can create some simple GUI's using the 'zenity' package from
Octave-Forge. I've told you can also use the GTK server
(http://www.gtk-server.org/intro.html), but I have no experience with
this option.

So, in general it will be some work to create GUI's from Octave :-(
