I'm taking it that your reference to the "GUI program" is the LilyPond 
mode -dgui, which is intended to produce minimal output to the screen, 
writing it instead to a logfile.  That is the design behaviour of that mode. 
If it's Frescobaldi that is the "GUI program", then I have no experience and 
can't help.
