Metaprogramming is the writing of programs that write or manipulate other programs (or themselves) as their data or that do part of the work that is otherwise done at compile time during runtime. In many cases, this allows programmers to get more done in the same amount of time as they would take to write all the code manually.
The language in which the metaprogram is written is called the metalanguage. The language of the programs that are manipulated is called the object-language. The capacity of a programming language to be its own meta-language is called reflexivity.
A simple example of a metaprogram is this bash script, which is an example of generative programming:

Partial Evaluation - Some links and references for this optimization technique, and prototypes in various languages.
Synthesizer Generator - A system for creating language-sensitive editors, interfaces, and environments from formal grammatical descriptions of any language. [Commercial]
The Program Generator Generator - A partial evaluation system for Scheme: Given a program P and a specification of which of the inputs are known in advance, PGG outputs a program generator which accepts the known inputs of P and outputs a specialized version of P. PGG is fully automatic and can process all valid Scheme programs.
