Finally I got it figured out and the interface has showed up. I think
there are a few things to pay attention to based on my experience.
1. Don't install the Gate and Wordnet software in a folder that has
empty space in the folder name  like "c:\program files\Gate". Make sure
there is no space in the folder path. Same for the Wordnet.
2. Don't alter the slashes (/ \) in the properties file and text2onto
bat file (I changed them severally in the course of trying to figure out
was wrong but it only complicated issues. Both the properties file and
the bat are okay. Read through the read-me file and follow the
instructions there carefully. Set your <text2onto-dir> and <gate-dir>
appropriately.
3. Modify the
"jwnl_properties=<T2O-DIR>/3rdparty/jwnl/file_properties.xml"  by
editing the xml file to set the folder path for the Wordnet dictionary.
4. Don't bother about the tagger_dir, and spanish_wn_dir properties;
just live them as they are.
5. You will need to replace the file named "jasper-compiler-jdt.jar" in
the c:\text2onto\3party\gate\ folder with the one in c:\gate\lib\
folder. That is overwrite the one in the text2onto with the one that is
in gate folder.
With these steps, when you run the bat file, the interface should come
up. 
Best wishes.
