The first, but GUI is a somewhat outdated 90's term. Because any User Interface is graphical, isn't it? So that's why we simply refer to UI nowadays.
 
I wouldn't say so, there are still lots of CLI around. But, there is also more and more BUI-s. :-) (Browser User Interface) 
 
I'd leave CLIs to system operators and programmers. It's a convenient way to avoid the hassle of designing proper dialogs. Nothing that an ordinary user should be confronted with. :D
 
goo---ee

That's the way I have said it since the 90's.

Most EAs don't put up a GUI. They just have their input parameters - a non-graphical UI.

Compare that to my GUI EA which does:
          Indicators: Money Manager Graphic Tool - Risk Management - Articles, Library comments - MQL5 programming forum

 
Graphical User Interface.

Just as it's written, like the first sylabe of the word "guitar".
