"smit(ty)" from IBM's AIX comes to mind.  It provides a nice curses 
based menu interface / form to fill in information /and/ shows the 
underlying OS command(s) that will be executed.

I have always thought this was fairly unique (at least I'm ignorant of 
anything else like it) and quite helpful.
