Try http://www.autohotkey.com/

Or try VBScript/JScript:

   $ cat command.js
var process = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell");
process.Run("i-use-gui-command-here --with -a --few args");
WScript.Sleep(1000); process.AppActivate(process.ProcessID);
process.SendKeys("{TAB}{TAB}{TAB}{ENTER}");
   $ cmd /c command.js

Try upper.
