FinkCommander is a GUI frontend (albeit outdated) for fink that should be present on the Fink installer disk image (you need to copy it to your hard drive to run it), or downloadable at finkcommander.sourceforge.net. It can be used to do package management operations, but not to -run- anything--that's done via the command line. -- Alexander K.
