It wasn't clear to me from reading the man page for mkshortcut that
there was a way to create other Cygwin shortcuts alongside the default
Start->Program Files->Cygwin ones.

So, FYI, when you specify the name with the -n option, you can name
`directories' in the normal way.  E.g.:

	mkshortcut -A -P -n "Cygwin/Xwindows" /startx.bat
