I released rqt_ez_publisher for hydro and indigo.
rqt_ez_publisher automatically creates GUI for publishing topics.
(It is a plugin for rqt, which is standard GUI tool of ROS.)

It is similar to rqt_reconfigure, which is for parameters, but
rqt_ez_publisher
is for topics.
Although rqt_reconfigure requires some config files,
rqt_ez_publisher needs nothing. All you have to do is select a topic from
list.

This video shows how it works.
