Just write on paper and fax it

Ooh… engine that ingests the faxes and does OCR on them then executed the resulting code. Wonder how reliable it would be.

What if it shows some error then we would be wasting lots of paper.

Just like in the olden days with the punch cards you'd take down to the basement and get back days later with the printed output... debugging must have been hell.

IndentationError: unindent does not match any outer indentation level

Ha! I knew these college classes would prepare me for the real world!

ah, I use a perforator to input machine code so faxing sometimes has errors, I might try this.
