Subject: How to create a windows link in script?
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

I would like to be able to create a .lnk file to a batch file (and ideally associate an icon with it) from a bash script on a Windows 2000 machine.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
I think "ln -s" used to work, but has since been improved?  Anyway, this does not provide the functionality for the icon.

-rgm
