Need to create a simple commandline box that sits on the desktop

I am creating a program that takes a user input such as the word 'note' and then runs the program or system command that that shortcut is associated with. I want to create a child window that is just a plain text box, no title bars, etc, that always sits on the desktop for someone to put these commands into. Can someone point me in the right direction, I have used PythonCard ontop of WxPython for everything else but it won't allow for a simp text box like I want. Any help would be appreciated.
