In this paper, we present the results of an ongoing effort in building user interfaces for proof systems. Our approach is generic: we are not constructing a user interface for a particular proof system, rather we have developed techniques and tools that have been applied to several proof systems. We first propose and motivate a distributed architecture, where the proof system and the interface are two separate processes communicating through a protocol. Then we describe three high-level features:proof-by-pointing,script management, andtextual explanation. Altogether, they take advantage of the underlying architecture and yield a more user-friendly proof environment.
