You appear to be misunderstanding what "interactive" means in this
context. It doesn't necessarily imply a GUI.

The only situation where a script should be using d.mon is if it
really is a "script", in the sense of a canned sequence of commands
which is meant to be "replayed" as part of an interactive workflow.

Anything which tries to behave like a typical program should manage
the relevant environment variables directly.
