I suggest just running your little Windows program under Wine. Don't use wcmd, you don't need it. For instance, in my ~/bin, I have a shell script winword which just contains wine -- "c:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\winword.exe" "$@" That more or less lets me run microsoft word from the commandline.
You can configure wine to not require X. I've done it on some commandline Windows programs I wanted to use in shell scripts on Linux. It was and is a pain, I believe, because so few of the Wine developers use commandline Windows programs without X, but it is doable. (And maybe it's easier than it used to be; I don't know.) - Dan
