It depends :-).
If you were running the wish shell and started an application from
the wish shell command line, then puts (with no stream argument) produces
output in the wish console window.
On the other hand, if you started from an icon (e.g, double-clicking on a
tcl/tk (=extension .tcl in windows) file which can execute, then
output from puts with only one argument disappears into the big bit
bucket in the sky.
