The Punch Card Project

The Punch Card Project is a collection of programs to make computer I/O with ​punch cards. Thus it has quite the same targets as the Paper Tape Project, but it is currently under active development (March 2010).

You can read the article ​Reading punch cards with contemprary computers for an up-to-date abstract about the project. Since the project's website is currently moving, you can posssibly get more information at the ​Punched Paper Project website.

• ​Prof. Douglas W. Jones proposed a file format for ​Emulated Punched Card Desks that is used a lot in this project. His overall work on the ​Punched Cards topic is really useful (and I still didn't got the time to write him an email at this time (June 2010))
