Is there a good example WINE configuration for running a simple console program (using wineconsole)?
wineconsole tree.com should do the trick
in more details, you can either: 1/ choose to run your program in the (unix) console where you type the command with "wine tree.com" 2/ or dedicate a specific console for your app "wineconsole tree.com" option 1 is better for integration with unix tools option 2 is better in terms of Wine internal handling, and may be less buggy (depending on what your program does)
I got the "WINE Administrators Handbook", but it doesnt mention wineconsole at all.
this book is rather old (and Wine did evolve a lot since it has been written)
A+
