To the best of my knowledge no - however if you pass it a file-url  
via the -s option it will execute an itql script.  I have used this  
on several occasions where I wanted to avoid tunneling X11 back  
across a slow link.

P.S.
Just so no-one else is confused - the itql shell runs in a java swing  
window, which only requires X if you are running under a unix.   
Unfortunately this does mean that you have to be running X locally if  
you want to use the interactive shell on a remote unix/linux  
machine.  This decision predates my involvement in the project and I  
can only presume this was done this way to avoid Windows broken shell.
