I've been away a couple of days, so I'm late to this thread. I asked a=20
similar question a week or two back on the mailing list I use. This answ=

may be of interest:
PostgreSQL is excellent and fast. A graphical X window client "pgaccess"=20
is available, stable and full-featured. This client works nicely for=20
both local and remote connections. It definitely beats using web browser=20
for database access.
I googled for pgacess, and it looks a nice clear gui. I intend giving it=
a go=20
sometime soon, but to replace my Approach databases.
