[Wine] Running text app without X

[Sylvain Petreolle]

Your app must be checking for a possible graphical output,
an hello world test binary can be run without any DISPLAY variable at all.

[syl at wine tw]$ set |grep DISPLAY
[syl at wine tw]$ wine /mnt/hdb5/reactos/output-i386/modules/rosapps/tests/hello/hello.exe
Hello world
[syl at wine tw]$
