I guess stdin loop does not work for J for shell script because there is no 
message loop to feed the stdin.  I test J601/windows will cause stdin overflow 
at about 67MB with the following script

NB. test stdin overflow
3 : 0 ''
try.
1!:2&2 # 1!:1[3
catch.
1!:2&2 [ 13!:12''
end.
2!:55[0
)

But it seems have trouble with binary data as others previously reported.

Your elaboration of CGI guide in jwiki will be most welcome.
