UI. User Interface. The bridge between a system and a user. So anything, literally any information transfer from the user to the system OR from the system to the user, is a User Interface.
A definition so broad as to be useless.
Is it a UI when someone calls memcpy to move data from a file to a screen buffer?
Not it isn't.
A command line literally is a UI.
You seem to be confusing GUI and UI?
You seem to be confusing C stdlib with a CLI?
