Direct SchemeLilyPond internally uses GUILE, a Scheme-interpreter. Scheme is a
language from the LISP family. You can learn more about Scheme at
http://www.scheme.org. It is used to represent data throughout
the whole program. The hash-sign ( LilyPond contains a Scheme interpreter (the GUILE library) for internal use. In some places, Scheme expressions also form valid syntax: Wherever it is allowed, #scheme evaluates the specified Scheme code. Example: \property Staff.TestObject \override #'foobar = #(+ 1 2)
In-line Scheme may be used at the top level. In this case the result is discarded. Scheme is a full-blown programming language, and a full discussion is outside the scope of this document. Interested readers are referred to the website http://www.schemers.org/ for more information on Scheme. |
