Take a good look at the GUICS program by Mironenko and Pachepsky. It
took me only about a week to install SimPotato into it even tho it was
developed for Glycim, which has a very different set of input/output
files. GUICS uses a system of script files to identify and describe
the contents/format of the input files so it is pretty flexible. At
least it has many or most of the features that you would want in a
user interface.
A version of GUICS can be downloaded thru my web page (with the authors
permission) at http://www.tricity.wsu.edu/htmls/hodges or at
