In that case, do ur or IUCV and tell 'em it's not network traffic.
Merciful $DEITY. You mean you can start a shell on a reader/punch
combo?

Not as such, or at least, I've never tried.  But no reason you can't
watch the reader, and when you get something in, receive it to a file
and submit that file as a shell script, putting the redirected output
of stdout and stderr back into the punch as, say $$.stdout and $
$.stderr (where $$ expands to "the pid of that process").  A little
magic to spool your punch to the appropriate user and run everything
through EBCDIC <-> ASCII translation, and it's all good.
