Certainly! In the LilyPond programming language, you can write music notation as well as text and other elements. To simply output “Hello World!” using basic commands, you would typically use a text block. Here’s how you can do it:
\version "2.19.0"
hello = \text {Hello World!}
\score {
<<
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "hello" \hello
>>
}
In this example, the \text
command is used to define a string of text, and then it’s associated with a lyrics line in a score. However, if you want to display plain text without musical context, you can use:
\version "2.19.0"
\paper {
indent = 0
}
\layout { }
<<
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "" \hello
>>
This will simply print the text “Hello World!” as lyrics in a score, but without any musical notes or symbols.
If you just want to output it directly to a .ly
file or have it displayed in an environment that can interpret LilyPond code (like a browser or a terminal with lilypond installed), this will display:
Hello World!
Remember to save the above code in a .ly
file and run lilypond filename.ly
to see the output.
