I am interested in a shortest Forth program (probably a colon definition)
which has no input and - when invoked - has itself as output.
I have a very short solution in BASIC (84 characters) and a solution
for PASCAL containing 256 characters which is very short for PASCAL.
To solve this problem in other languages I haven't tried so far.
