When using the text command, what needs to be around the word or words you
want to appear?

In most programming languages "" are required around text.

Explanation:

Python: print("text")

HTML: <p>text</p>

C++: int Main() {

cout << "text" << endl;

}

Lua: print("text")

the only way i would see could be an autoclicker type software. but that is very time consuming.
