pgAdmin is a feature rich Open Source administration and development 
platform for PostgreSQL. The application may be used on variuos 
platforms to manage PostgreSQL 7.3 and above, as well as commercial 
and derived versions of PostgreSQL such as Postgres Plus Advanced 
Server and Greenplum database.

pgAdmin is designed to answer the needs of all users, from writing 
simple SQL queries to developing complex databases. The graphical 
interface supports all PostgreSQL features and makes administration 
easy. The application also includes a syntax highlighting SQL editor,
a server-side code editor, an SQL/batch/shell job scheduling agent, 
support for the Slony-I replication engine and much more. Server 
connection may be made using TCP/IP or Unix Domain Sockets 
(on *nix platforms), and may be SSL encrypted for security. 
No additional drivers are required to communicate with 
the database server.

pgAdmin requires wxPython PostgreSQL (available at slackbuilds.org).
