As I've just tested command line that is passed as argument to WinMain does
not contain program name and starts with first argument. Moreover, you must
compile that program as GUI application and thus will not be able to use it
to redirect its output (unless you will do something really complicated as
to use Console functions but in this case there will be a whole bunch of
problems where Win95 will behave differently than WinNT).

Another my thought is to ignore 0th argv and pass as first argument program
name to that small program, so Borland-provided argv[0] will be ignored.

Best wishes,
