Don't call graphics() and don't compile as a gui app.

I realize that but how to you get parameters for the tool?

If you're asking how to read parameters then look here... If you're asking how to redirect output to a console window, then just de-select 'Program>Build Options>Build GUI App' form the IDE and all print statements will be redirected to the console (and don't use a graphics mode, obviously).
