I wrapped an entire Tk application with tclexecomp.
 
It works. Everything works.
 
Then I have some idea and decide to test something. The story gets

Instead of a full-fledged application, only this script is packed:
 
$ cat p1.tcl
puts "hello"
exit
 
Yes, that's it.
 
So I pack it and run it and nothing prints. Why?
 
(In the slightly longer version of this story, I am trying to puts
the output of [pwd], [glob *], [parray env] and source another .tcl
file.)

Under Linux, provided you are running that from within a terminal

It's Linux. I run it as ./p1 in a terminal session.
