I Wish to write a widget e.g. a filename entry box with browse. that will send the name of the chosen file to the stdout the calling shell/ 'C' program can use it to open a file. This output is not for the user. The Tcl/tk program when run on my Linux box passes the output to the shells stdout. I can pick this up with FileName = `./getFileName.tcl` but in cygwin the stdout is a built in console. Is there a way to turn off the console, not just hide it but really off so I get the same functionality as when run on Linux. > Hi I am writing a small tcl/tk program, and am having problems writing to > stdout. > I need to write to stdout to tell the calling program which button the > user pressed.
