We present four small, high quality, Motif based tools for high energy physicists and discuss some of the less obvious work that is necessary to fully take advantage of graphical user interfaces (GUIs). Histo-Scope and NPlot are interactive data display programs. Histo-Scope is for viewing data as it is collected in running analysis or data acquisition programs, NPlot, for plotting data from text files. Visajet is an interface for the ISAJET event simulation program. It gives users a fast way to configure ISAJET and displays ISAJET events in a three dimensional phase space display that users can rotate and manipulate with the mouse. NEdit is a GUI style plain text editor.
