Just make the shell script yourself.  I have the following in
~/bin/jython

-------
#!/bin/bash

if [ "$1" = "--classpath" ] ; then
    CP="$2"
    shift 2
fi

java3 -Dpython.home="C:\\apps\\jython" -classpath "C:\\apps\\jython\\jython.jar;$CP;$CLASSPATH" org.python.util.jython "$@"
-------

I also have a shell script named "java3" that runs java.exe from
version 1.3.1 (I also have 1.2.2 and 1.1.8 installed).  Adjust the
paths to match your installation directories.  (also be aware that
java is not cygwin-aware and needs win32 paths)
