[AG-TECH] Service Manager Setup in 3.0.1

[Thomas D. Uram]

AG3 installs the python module into a non-standard location.
You should run the service manager from the menu.  If you
prefer to run it from the command line, do this:

runag3.py AGServiceManager3.py

runag3.py sets the python path correctly.
