I assume you mean the Quartus Programmer GUI.

You can run "quartus_pgm" from the command prompt. It runs a Quartus Programmer, but not the GUI. "quartus_pgm -h" should get you started.

You can't use the USB-Blaster without either the command line programmer or GUI. So, you'll need the Quartus software installed.

Cheers,

Alex
