I am using freewrap to package a program into a single file. It seems freewrap has two options freewrap and freewrapTCLSH. Since freewrapTCLSH was created for a command line tool in mind it displays any puts "some text" to the terminal. However, with freewrap any puts "some text" does not show on the terminal.

The program is GUI based so I cannot use freewrapTCLSH. However, it uses procedures that displays info to the terminal. While there might be a better way to show info for a GUI based program, these procedures are third party so I cannot change the fact that info is trying to be sent to the terminal.

Is there a way for a freewrap program to display info to the terminal?

    Try putting `console show` at the start of your program. – Colin Macleod Oct 11 '22 at 16:39
  • That does work, it will give me a separate window that shows the terminal outputs. Even though it is a GUI program, I start it by calling the executable from the terminal. Do you know if there is a way for the output to go directly to that terminal? – nikost Oct 11 '22 at 16:56
  • Perhaps you could try using a different packaging method for your program. I find http://www.ch-werner.de/cgi-bin/luck.pl pretty good. – Colin Macleod Oct 11 '22 at 17:57
