Thank you for the links [member=7109]Moltke[/member]
No not trying to create anything at the moment, I am working through the book, "The Linux Command Line", unsure how many years ago I began it, I began to use Linux (Linux Lite right from the very start) 4 years ago from July 2018. But only started to use Linux and no Windows after a few of those years.
I learn some bits then do other things. When I feel ready then I learn some more. I am just beginning Chapter 17.
I use LL, and Gedit for Python coding, I then test the Python in the terminal before making the GUI, I build the GUI afterwards by editing and typing it in to the Python code in its file.
If you have not seen it this was my first completed Python app and GUI I made, I done it on LL using Gedit, Terminal, Python, and Tkinter. I am really pleased I was able to finish the first one because it will encourage me in future projects, not to give up easily.

Overall in the chapter of book I learned about the storage commands to -
1. make files or folders in to an image
2. command to burn that image/ISO
3. how to clone hard drive to another hard drive
4. how to view what occurs when device is added to the system.
Later that night I was listening to music and looking at the chapter index of contents for next few chapters, a future one is about "archives and backups", my mind thought, you have already learned about backup software, then the thought of commands 1thru 4 and how it may not be too difficult the extra things to learn to make this in Python into a backup software, for files/directories, cloning hard drives, and output it to external media, like portable hard drive or flash drive for files and directories.
Later I thought maybe as a stepping stone to that making an app GUI for burning ISO to disc, or saving to USB could be a practice run, but to make it final /usable gui on its own in case someone liked it or wanted to use it in part of another project.
It was just thoughts of the basic outline of what was needed.
