Instead of this, why not just use the Windoze desktop that's already there?

You can start a remote xterm by creating a new shortcut on your desktop
and making the command "rexec <host> /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm -display 
<mymachine>:0.0".

You could do a shell extension, but I'm not sure how you'd go about compiling
it w/o MinGW or MSVC, and even then it's probably not trivial to append to the
standard desktop menu under different OSes (95 w/o the IE4 pack probably 
doesn't
even support that, and it's most likely a different IF between 98 and NT in
keeping with MS tradition...)
