It did, but it could receive messages thanks to MIT Magic Cookies, which you could send because of Tk’s excellent integration with X. I can’t remember now if it was the browser you could also effectively spy on via similar means. Long time ago. I have largely forgotten how my tool worked now but the code I wrote (modified wish shell) might still be out there.
