Learn Python. (It's not actually that difficult; the language is
straightforward, moderately object-oriented, weakly typed.) Use the
Gtk+ (or GNOME) Python bindings (this is a significant pain reduction
from, say, C). In some ways this "feels" like a quick hackish way to
program, but it works, it's easy to tweak, and it probably has the
least punctuation of any option. :-)
