I'm curious.  Why go through all of what you wrote when all you need to do
is execute the shell script?  I'm a Z-shell user and have a bunch of scripts
that I run.

Maybe the secret is not to try and start a script from within a command prompt.
Start cygwin xterms.  I have two that I start up after booting the system.
The scripts are in my home/bin path, so they are found.

It is as simple as that.

It is true that they are not "clickable," but entering the script name in
the xterm also allows me to also include parameters/options.
