Hi Jeremy,

Looks good - just a couple of points...

- Strings that are candidates for translation (when added to pgAgent)
should be wrapped in the _() macro, not wxT(); for example, your 'cannot
open the logfile' string.

- Changing the command line options is unnacceptable except in extreme
cases because it can easily confuse people when upgrading, expecially if
they miss the change. Please use -l for the loglevel as per current
releases and choose another letter for the logfile.

Thanks, Dave.
