How to build console unicorn version

Hi all,
     I have successfully builded Unicorn using ant and executed it on
Tomcat, It runs fine in Tomcat no issues. Instead of running it on tomcat
server or any other web server it should be implemented in console version.
(I don`t want to run it on any web server).

    My goal on this application is, build a console version of unicorn

    Can anyone tell me how to do this,
        ---> How to run the unicorn main class program? (by execute it using
ant, it will be plus for me).
        ---> I googled and found that there is no way of running a WAR file
in command line, Is there anyway we can run war file at console?
        ---> How to call the unicorn.war file and use it on a simple java
program?

I tried this one "ant retrieve generate_observer generate_tasklist
default_conf jar" but it ends with this error,

goten@MetalBig:/media/Netpad/unicorn/unicorn$ ant retrieve generate_observer
generate_tasklist default_conf jar

        ---> Is there anyway we can convert a war into jar file.

Note : My goal is not to execute it on localhost or any web servers
everything should be executed in command line itself I want to post the uri
from the command line parameter and get the report in plain text and print
it on the console itself. please be brief because I`m newbie to advanced
Java technologies and Unicorn, also guide me with the links it will be
useful for me to understand.
Thanks in advance.
