Hi Martin,

Thanks for updating the msys package, and doubly, no /triply /so, for keeping such good notes! (http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/wiki/pkg-msys)

`apps\msys\msys.bat` could be simplified a little bit by changing lines 13-16 inclusive as they just duplicate what o4w_env.bat always does anyway. This also enables msys to be portable.

   rem source OSGeo4W changes
   call "~dp0\..\..\bin\o4w_env.bat

And in `postinstall\msys.bat` setting the window property for the menu and desktop shortcuts to 7 (minimized) will stop the console window flicker on startup:

   xxmklink ... "msys" *7* "%OSGEO4W_ROOT%\apps\msys\m.ico"
   xxmklink ... "msys" *7* "%OSGEO4W_ROOT%\apps\msys\m.ico"

(and if you took the first suggestion, the txtreplace line can also be removed).

If you add 'maintainer: MartinLanda" to the `setup.hint` file the package vesions page will show your name and link trac homepage automatically (http://download.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/versions.html).

cheers and thanks again,
