How to get proton to run a cli windows app through the linux terminal
15:22 07 May 2026

When I do

wine Minecraft.Server.exe it runs through the same terminal

if I do umu-run Minecraft.Server.exe it opens up a cmd window (Uses ge-proton)

I'd like to get umu-run to run in the same linux terminal I'm using just like wine

Here's the link to the minecraft server if anybody is interested: https://github.com/MCLCE/MinecraftConsoles/releases/tag/nightly-dedicated-server

Here's what I'm talking about;

wine Minecraft.Server.exe

umu-run Minecraft.Server.exe

(The mc server runs fine with wine I'm just curious as to how I can achieve this)

linux wine steam-proton
