Well, there is a short answer. And a long answer

The short: Foundation tools are traditional Unix tools, simply an executable 
that sits in your file system

The long: May applications have a GUI part, and a foundation tools somewhere in 
the bundle. The collect user Input from the user in the GUI, and then calls the 
foundation tool in its bundle with arguments.

In that case, the foundation tool WILL find the bundle, even if not called from 
the GUI. I have taken the liberty to write a short sample project:

https://github.com/below/FoundationGUI

Hope this helps

Alex
