You can invoke mintty with the cmd.exe built-in 'start' instead of
'run'. Even better, just invoke it directly from a shortcut rather
than from a .bat script, which also avoids a console window flashing
up briefly. The 'mintty' package in setup.exe automatically creates a
suitable shortcut under Cygwin in the start menu.
