I question that this should be necessary. I've been using WinCVS (1.2)
along w/ PuTTy/Plink for quite some time now w/ no additional DOS window,
and no need for a batch file.

The only difficulties I experienced was that the PuTTY does not seem to
eat client keys generated by my SSH2 server (commercial version). In order
to
make the connection work I had to use the puttygen program.
