wish window

[turtlejack]

I am relatively new to tcl.I am currently learning step by step from a web page..I have opened wish..there are 2 windows opened. one that says wish, and one that says console where I am inputting practice code.Why is the wish window greyed out(non accessible)?
I am using version 8.3.2..
any help to a beginner would be appreciated..

The Wish window is an empty frame. You can populate it (with widgets) by issuing commands on the console.
Try this. In the console type:
pack [label .l1 -text "this is a label"] -side top
pack [entry .e1 -textvariable e1val] -side top
set e1val "this is an entry"
