I am using a VCD file generated by iverilog with gtkwave. There is a button present in the GUI, but I would like to reload the wave window from the command line. How would I go about that?

Someone on the GTKWave mailing list actually asked this same question a few years ago. It turns out that you can make GTKWave reload using gconftool2, of all things:
gconftool-2 --type string --set /com.geda.gtkwave/0/reload 0
Running the above command will cause GTKWave to reload the current waveform (as opposed to enabling some kind of auto-reload option, which you would think would be the case given that GConf is a configuration system).
