Dwain,

It is:
http://en.opensuse.org/Zmd

and it is not necessary, since YaST is doing for years all that zmd should do 
for individual user, but without hogging resources on smaller machines, ie. 
without problems :-) 

Install opensuseupdater if you want notifications about security updates. 
I wanted. 

Than remove zmd, zen-updater, zen-installer, zen-remover and rug.
