I think not all the variables in the modelsim.ini can be set directly from the do script. Run the "report simulator control" command. It will list out all variables that set in the modelsim.ini can be set within a do script. These are the variables that you can set in do script. For example you can run "set IterationLimit 1234" command to overwrite the default IterationLimit value in the Modelsim.ini. For those that you can't set, you may want to figure out the equivalent command or switch in the vcom/vlog or vsim. For instance, to overwrite the VoptFlow = 1 in the Modelsim, you can use the -novopt switch in the vcom or vlog to the VoptFlow to 0. In case you're not aware, you can use your local modelsim.ini to overwrite the existing by changing the environment variable. I"m not sure that solve your problem. (2) As far as I concern, I do not aware that you can only load the waveform view GUI without bringing up the vsim GUI. It doesn't seem possible for me at this moment. Usually you have to bring up the Modelsim GUI as well. Hope this helps. :)
