using stdout

[JB]

This isn’t something I need but I read in a older manual
you can write to the terminal using stdout.  It said the
terminal needs to  be open and you use code like
below to log or write to the terminal;

put "Hello world." into tMessage
write tMessage && the long time & return to stdout

When I run this code nothing happens even though
I have the terminal open.

Does anyone know how to use stdout with the terminal
from within a stack?
