Where is KCRON?

I've been trying to find a GUI interface for cron on FC^with KDE.  Googling
around on that I found a reference to KCRON which I guess is supposed to be
installed along with KDE.  But I can't find it anywhere on my KDE menus, and
it's not listed on the the "install/remove programs" tool.  On the other
hand, when I tried yum install kcron, it downloaded the files then said
"nothing to do" which I think means it's installed already.  Is it, and if
so does anyone know where I can find it? If not, how can I get it to
install?

 

Also, does anyone have recommendations for a task scheduler with a GUI and a
little more functionality than cron, like showing when something is running,
when is the next scheduled run, the ability to suspend scheduled jobs, etc?
There are a number of such things for windoze.  I found this
http://www.sos-berlin.com/modules/cjaycontent/index.php?id=62
<http://www.sos-berlin.com/modules/cjaycontent/index.php?id=62&page=osource_
scheduler_introduction_en.htm> &page=osource_scheduler_introduction_en.htm
but it is a little too feature rich.  I tried it anyway and couldn't get it
to play nice with mysql (which it requires).  

 

Thanks,

 

Steve
