If you want to maximize the window in Windows, here is the way:

    if has("gui_win32")       " NT Windows
        autocmd GUIEnter * :simalt ~x
    endif

Note that it should be wrapped inside an autocmd group, if you don't have
any autocmd inside your .vimrc, here is the way:
augroup vimrcEx
    autocmd!
    " put your autocmd here.
augroup END

About diff mode: I use the following to test for diff mode, but I forget
why it works.
    let in_diff_mode = 0
    windo let in_diff_mode = in_diff_mode + &l:diff
    if in_diff_mode == 1
        " do something
    else
        " do something else
    endif

About short-cut key for launch gvim? just create a shortcut on desktop or
start menu, then right click to change the properties, the short cut key
could be set there.
