Well, they just seem to keep getting longer.

Your goal: hello, world in one line. Language of your choice. Linking
in a 512 MB library is a violation of the spirit of this contest.

Additional rules:
- line length is not defined but let's be reasonable
- if you can fit it in a standard Hollerith card format (72 chars plus
8 chars of comment) that's a plus

Redirection of stdout is allowed.

and if you want something more cr= yptic (which was a whole lot fun to do):

_prog_:=3D prog() {_prog_:= =3D"";len _prog_;};prog_:=3Dprog(_prog:prog()) of prog(){print_:= =3Dprint(_prog);_print_:=3D(len print_-184)/17;print(print_[2*_print_+17],p= rint_[7*_print_+63],print_[11*_print_+114],print_[11*_print_+114],print_[4]= ,print_[6]);begin prog(_char:char){print(_char);}(119);print(print_[4],prin= t_[3],print_[11*_print_+114],print_[4*_print_+40]);become _prog;}(_prog_);<= br>
