Help with shortcuts


Can some on give me a help with creating a shortcut to a shell script under Windows 7 ?  


I am doing something like this in the windows shorcut : 

C:\CygwinSoftware\bin\mintty.exe -i /Cygwin-Terminal.ico --exec /cygdrive/x/INBOUND/CWSCRIPTS/mymenu.sh

Well I found in the documentation that when you run a script this way, it is not an interactive shell and it does not process your .bashprofile and .bashrc and all the good stuff it normally does when it logs in.  I am missing aliases when it logs in this way. 

How can I create a shortcut that would process my normal startup files and then run the script I what ? 

I have been fiddling with mkshortcut but have not had much luck with it as of yet.
