You may have heard of the Quicksort implementation in XProc of the famous algorithm in XProc

Here comes now the Quine, i.e a computer program which takes no input and produces a copy of its own source code as its only output.

It works in any of the many implementations of XProc. If you run for GPL, go look at QuiXProc
