Could QB64 be completely coded/recoded using QB64 only?
I don't develop QB64, but I don't see how it could be just QB64 statements. It translates code from QB64 to C/C++, and then uses an open source compiler to compile that code, and runs the program. So without any C/C++, how could it translate, right? I believe to covert to binary would mean translating to ASM or worse, machine code. Anyway, just spit-balling here. I've never really delved into it, but it will be interesting to see if this sparks some conversation from those who have.

So, it would require a compiler to compile QB64 code directly, then?
