I'm interested on whether there are reasons for using the batch files
in ~system/bin to run the various interfaces in the J7 Windows
install?
Why not just have the shortcut run jconsole.exe with the appropriate
options directly?

One downside for using the batch files is the side effect it has on
the icon used to represent the Jgtk window in the Taskbar - gray
(jconsole) rather than green (jgtk). The other issue is that you end
up with a cmd window (labelled j64-701gtk) as well as the window(s)
for the Jgtk IDE.

I've had good results with the following in Windows 7 - (it solves
both problems mentioned above):
Change the Target of the Jgtk shortcut from:
"C:\Program Files\j64-701\bin\jgtk.bat"
To:
"C:\Program Files\j64-701\bin\jconsole.exe" gtkide

Change the Target of the Jjhs shortcut from:
"C:\Program Files\j64-701\bin\jhs.bat"
To:
"C:\Program Files\j64-701\bin\jconsole.exe" ide/jhs/core -js " init_jhs_'' "
