Unfortunately, as mentioned, it isn't currently possible to run vic without an interface as the tcl GUI is integral to the tool. One solution, if you for example you have a headless UNIX machine, would be to point the DISPLAY at a vncserver (a virtual X11 server) - that way you don't have the GUI showing up anywhere and vic just runs - though you'd need to set it up to transmit on startup. You could remotely access the GUI using a vnclient.
