A quine is a computer program which takes no input and produces a copy of its own source code as its only output.

The following sequence of bytecode is a valid #uxn quine. Uxn is at an advantage in that raw hex is valid uxn code. So the quine here reads its own program(without self-evaluating it, or introspection) and outputs itself again.

@waweic @millihertz uxntal can't inspect the source code in this one. I could but I'd need to use the file device, which is forbidden. And uxn doesn't keep a copy of the source file during runtime.
