  I located, somewhere on
  the
 Internet, a shell script that someone wrote
 
 called 3m that uses /usr/bin/wish to put up a
  small window with whatever
 
 message you want.
  I have attached the
 script at the bottom.
  
  For
 example, in response to
  the commands,
  
  [craig ~]$ 3m
  "Emails received:
  >
 email 1: Good
  morning, are you up?
  > email 2: Today is
 
 Monday!
  > email 3: part XYZ at
 $55"

  I produces the window

 attached screenshot.

I tried that script but cannot get it to work.
I downloaded and installed tk so I would have wish.
and I stuck the script in my home directory, made it executable, etc.
No joy tho on executing it....

wish is in my path... but nothing happens when trying to execute script.
are you just using the command "3m" to bring up the window?
