how do I display my console as background on my desktop?

Hi,

I used to have an application called "backgroundconsole" that displayed my console log as a background on my desktop. But I did a clean install of Lion and misplaced the .dmg file :'( Does anyone have a link to this app? If not, how do I go about writing a shell script that does the same thing? I would prefer the latter option as it's more *educational*, and I you would have my infinite gratitude if you could point me to the former. I've tried "NerdTool", but that application was perfect "out of the box".
