HaikuUtils is a collection of little tools to manage various aspects of the running system.

CLI tools:
* 'MsgDump' opens flattened BMessage files, which are often used to store application settings.
* 'PictureView' shows flattened BPictures.
* 'TraverseApps' lists running applications and GUI objects inside them such as BWindow and BView. Very handy for (hey) scripting purposes.

GUI tools:
* 'Services' lets you stop and restart services like servers and daemons, a bit like a GUI to the shell command 'launch_roster'.
*'SystemManager' shows all running teams and lets you explore various team objects (images, threads, semaphores, etc.).
* 'Users' is used to add, remove or edit user and group profiles.

Warning! This software suit is incomplete.

Quite useful to kill tasks in a UI, restart services, change the local shell without using a terminal. Should be part of the main system.
