If you are looking for a client to work with with your Postgres database,then you can use psql(for command line),or use PGAdmin (http://www.pgadmin.org/).

If you are looking to connect data from your Sybase database to a Postgres database,you can have a look at the various
Foreign data wrappers Postgres has.

If you wish to work in C,then,I would suggest libpq.I would wait for more replies on this,as I have little knowledge
about psqlODBC.
