Definitely consider trying out the Scheme "sandbox."  It's much more
convenient for learning Scheme than embedding Scheme in ly files.

Yes, it's a lifesaver.  I use format more often, because it makes
constructing meaningful output a lot easier.  You will find--or maybe you
already have!--that output to the console can get confusing.    For one
thing, it's usually "out-of-order."

Anyway, glad to be of help!
