I am trying to start new notebook from a command line mode with command UsingFrontEnd@CreateDocument[] The notebook is created but it stays in minimized mode at the taskbar. How to start notebook properly from a command line so I can interact with it?

Edit

I am using Ubuntu 15.04 and I am starting the mathematica kernel in gnome-terminal with command math.

  • The question is not clear. What OS are you running? When you say command line, what application is actually prompting and processing your commands? A terminal emulator? A Mathematica kernel? – m_goldberg Dec 31 '15 at 22:14

Using a package file

open.m

Needs["JLink`"];
$FrontEndLaunchCommand = FileNameJoin[{$InstallationDirectory, "Mathematica.exe"}];
UseFrontEnd[CreateDocument[]];

from a command line (Windows)

cd \Program Files\Wolfram Research\Mathematica\10.4
start MathKernel -noicon -initfile C:\myPath\open.m
