Quite often, but not always, an X program is just a front-end to a CLI program 
which you can execute directly. It's worth checking that out.

You might - with a rather low probabily - find something like:-
cat datafile | X-program -
works provided you have the datafile formatted correctly.
 
Without more details it not really possible to produce effective help.
