I'm now working on postmaster windows shell. It's not finished yet but main things work.

Funcionality implemented now is :

��� Console redirection for capture output from postmaster

��� Starting-stoping postmaster

��� Choose for shutdown mode

��� System tray icon

��� Postmaster options are read from registry

��� ��� -postmaster path

��� ��� -datadir

��� ��� -additional options

�

Funcionality not implemented�yet, but planned�:

��� Writing captured output from postmaster to log file

��� Options setup dialog

��� Edit pg_hba.conf

��� ???

���

Application is MFC free pure windows API (compiler:gcc-mingw, Dev-C++ IDE) .
