How do I print something on to a screen?

[Imaguy1337 0]

I have my computer set up with a screen. Whenever I do print("Hello"), it prints out hello in the next line of code, which is visible on the screen. But how do I get the screen to not display the command log, and instead display text which I can edit? Ex : The screen says "Hello" in big letters but nothing else.

Thanks.

There is a more efficient way to do it, by using the feature to print in a specific Pixel on the screen, but for Rule Boards and Staff boards that I don't want to change, I do the following. (Basically because I haven't learned the "proper" way to do it yet.

 

it is quick and dirty and works though.

local comp = require("component")
local event = require("event")
local gpu = comp.gpu

while true do

  gpu.setResolution(30, 6)
  gpu.setBackground(0XFF0000)
  gpu.setForeground(0X00CC00)
  print("")
  print("No PVP in Survival Map")
  print("We have an Anarchy World")
  print("and Arenas for PVP")
  print("")
os.sleep(30)

end

Obviously adjust Resolution to just fit your screen.
I use the above on a rather large screen at spawn.
By setting a small resolution it prints nice Large letters.
The while true loop will run forever. 

if set as autorun.lua, the program will run even if the pc gets restarted.
The require event still lets you [Ctrl Alt C] out of the program if you want to edit it.

As I stated this is dirty, but gets the job done.
I have a lot to learn to do it properly, but depending on your needs. This might work for you.
