Hi all,

Okay, I see what articulate.ly does. However… has anyone tried to do this 
within the midi generator. I debugged the python_midi.c file, and I can see 
what it’s doing. Geez, it seems like at the point where the midi file is being 
generated, lilypond ought to know everything about what’s the score, and ought 
to be able to apply articulation easily and much more correctly at that point.

Has anyone tried doing this? My guess is it’s nowhere near as easy as I think 
it should be. But, honestly, the midi files suck. As a Sibelius user, this is a 
showstopper — Sibelius does a beautiful job at this, and it seems like it 
shouldn’t be difficult for lilypond to do the same.

I’m a software developer — not python, nor guile , but just about everything 
else, but especially C++. I could do guile and python if needed. Perhaps I 
should try this, but is there interest? Do I have time for this? And why 
haven’t the others who know a great deal more about this than I do, done this?

Thanks. No criticism at all intended: I think lilypond is amazing.
