  Description     : Control Grub Default through a GUI

(text below is taken from the website given above)
Do you have a dual boot system? Isn't it annoying when you want to
reboot from Linux into Windows or vice-versa, and you have to wait for
the machine to shut down, BIOS to initialize just so that you can now
select the OS that you want to boot into?

grub-choose-default gives you a GUI that you can use to easily select
the next default for grub and you can go and grab a snack while your
computer reboots without having to wait for anything.

It's a very simple program that just reads your grub menu entries and
then lets you click on the one you want to be the next default.
