How to run a windows command script without a GUI

We want to use Crossover to run a VB6 script in a shell script in Linux, it does not need any GUI. But we get error messages about the display:

RuntimeError: could not open display

How can we run commands in batch without a display, or with proper display settings?

Hi,

Have you tried passing the wine process the --no-gui commandline switch in the
script invocation?

Cheers!

That seems to work, thanks Don! Overlooked that option somehow....
