There is/are no programs to make your own programming language. A difference exists between programming and actual computer science. As an analogy, imagine driving and automotive engineering. You love to drive, and the fact you can drive isn't a neccessary condition for any automotive university degree anywhere in the world. A programming language is built upon Automata Theory and Formal Languages, and basically the whole of Discrete Mathematics. "Don't be scared to check it out, I personally think all maths is pretty, but discrete Mathematics is the far prettier side" The answers below that talk on "libraries" What the mean is that they just edit or basically make personal edits to their copy of an already existing language.
