Command Line Options HOWTO
To launch PVX applications like FACTS you must use the command line options like would be contained in a Windows alias. For example:

wine /path/to/pvxwin32.exe *ntslave -id=$USER -arg 192.168.1.2 SSIWDX 10100

This would be the CLI options you would use for FACTS 7.5. For your version, installing the client on a Windows machine allows you to find the needed command line options by reading the details of the Windows alias that will be created. You can use environment variables like $USER and they are quite useful. For FACTS I can easily distinguish the person running it because of the $USER variable.
