Weird(?) thought about programming languages

I remember someone touting REBOL’s built-in parsing capability. I have
no idea whether it’s powerful enough to parse REBOL code itself.

Neat thought!

If a language included its own parser as an object in the language, then
you
could do it… in a way, I think.

As far as I know, no language goes that far, yet.
