Hey! this is linux! You can do ANYTHING in multiple ways.... 
Step 1: Throw away anything with a MS logo; Scientific testing shows that they 
have been embedded with an occult miasma to actually make people stick in the 
box while thinking they are out of the box! :-)

Step 2: Write a script to do what you want incorporating kdialog to allow you 
to select destinations etc.
See Kdialog --help for details and people wont even know that your simple 5 
minute script is not a C++ app.

Kdialog was written for this very reason; so that bash scripts etc can be used 
in a Gui environment.
