Sorry.. I know that most Linux-based tools won't have a GUI. But I mean... In the gnome menu system, I am missing the entire administration option (not even the link for gnome-terminal(which I have))..

I mean, there's gotta be at least one or two GUI based tools for everyday things like user management and config editors.. (so I don't have to do things like useradd groupadd all the time)

I (think I can, but haven't tried using the actual APIs provided by the system(Just the language/GUI framework itself)) write simple apps for doing everyday tweaks, but I mean... There's gotta be some tool I can use to begin with (I've seen some other OpenBSD user's desktops... they somehow have (a few) administration tools)

Sorry If I sound kinda whiny... but yeah... I don't really wanna spend hours reading man pages for something I already know (I can, but I do need some working "batteries included" examples first)..
