As far as I know, "tclsh" is the (console) interpreter for Tcl and
"wish" is the (X) interpreter for Tcl/Tk. Tk is a graphical toolkit
built on top of X and requires X to run. It should be report the
observed error message when run from the console without the DISPLAY
environment variable set to an accessable Xserver display.
