I want to do something to create a window, preferably marked as on-top, with a configurable message. Is there an Ubuntu package for that?

The idea to put the relevant command inside a script:

#!/bin/csh
docommand "hello world"

    The application you're looking for is called zenity. Here's your hello world:

    zenity --info --text="Hello World"
