the console is only setup when stdin is a special character file of  
length 0 such as /dev/null, otherwise the standard unix stdin/stdout  
via the Terminal is used, c.f. tkMacOSXInit.c

Starting wish via LaunchServices (i.e double-click) does setup stdin  
to be /dev/null, if you want the same when starting wish from  
Terminal, use
	$ wish </dev/null

Cheers,

Daniel
