yeah, datawarrior could run on a server, and redirect the GUI output to your local computer by X11. You just need to open a ssh connection with X11 forwarding, then excute export DISPLAY=:0.0 and run datawarrior on the shell. This will open a GUI window on your loacl computer.
Now, we could run datawarrior on a server with a macro to do somethings, but the window is unusefulness. So I hope to find some way to hide the window.
Fortunately, I found some tools like Xvfb (X virtual framebuffer), they could open a virtual display and redirect the GUI output to the virtual display on server.
