If it is a text mode program (a CUI (Console User Interface) executable), then run:

Code: Select all

wine program.exe
Or try

Code: Select all

wine cmd /C program.exe

Thanks for response.

When i run

Code: Select all

wine program.exe 
my program (CUI) is running but, UI program not working. It means text cannot be entered and the cursor goes down when I click enter.

Before where I use --backend=curses all works fine.

UPDATE:
when i use command:

Code: Select all

wine cmd
and run program.exe

my UI working so is problem with working on linux console terminal.
