2.3.2. The Intel® Quartus® Prime Tcl Console Window
To run Tcl commands directly in the Intel® Quartus® Prime Tcl Console window, click View > Utility Windows. By default, the Tcl Console window is docked in the bottom-right corner of the Intel® Quartus® Prime GUI. All Tcl commands typed in the Tcl Console are interpreted by the Intel® Quartus® Prime Tcl shell.
Note: Some shell commands such as cd, ls, and others can be run in the Tcl Console window, with the Tcl exec command. However, for best results, run shell commands and Intel® Quartus® Prime executables from a system command prompt outside of the Intel® Quartus® Prime software GUI.
Tcl messages appear in the System tab (Messages window). Errors and messages written to stdout and stderr also are shown in the Intel® Quartus® Prime Tcl Console window.
