I've started work on a tool I'm calling eCcess that is written in python and elementary. It's goal is to provide a GUI for system command similar to what some other desktops offer. I've started a github for it here -> https://github.com/JeffHoogland/eccess Small Image Gallery here -> https://github.com/JeffHoogland/eccess/tree/master/screenshots Currently you can add/delete users and change a user's current password. There is a list of groups - but currently it is non-functional in terms of doing anything with said groups (you will be able to add/delete groups once I get some more time). What features would be useful for a tool like this to have? I'm open to suggestions. -- ~Jeff Hoogland <http://jeffhoogland.com/> Thoughts on Technology <http://jeffhoogland.blogspot.com/>, Tech Blog Bodhi Linux <http://bodhilinux.com/>, Enlightenment for your Desktop |

Hi Jeff, nice effort. I saw a login shell mentioned in the screenshots. That's something I'd expect eccess to be able to configure. It could also configure xdg-user-dirs (http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/xdg-user-dirs). Can't think of other stuff right now.
