Mac Classic processors and Palm DragonBalls?
By the way, it looks like Palm OS now supports stdio emulation. I don't
know what versions it works for (it mentions using a Palm VII, which
uses 3.2, I think), but that should make porting much easier.
Apparently, you write a host app with a text box and scroll bar, then
tell the stdio emulation system what those are called. You then call a
specialized form of program; it must have linked in StdIOPalm.c. More
info:

***
The Palm OSR supports command line (UNIX style) applications for
debugging and special purposes such as communications utilities. This
capability is not intended for general users, but for developers. This
feature is not implemented in the Palm OS, but rather by additional C
modules that you must link with your application.

Wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in
New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. And radio operates
exactly the same way. The only difference is that there is no cat.
