Look at this report:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2012-12/msg00143.html

"If I include "articulate.ly" then beamed aftergrace notes have a tenuto articulation and are not rendered smaller, even though I never called the \articulate macro."

We may also suggest to put the \include "articulate.ly" after the notes and just before the score block where \articulate is used.

Agreed. Sorry, this is an open issue I own and I had forgotten.

There have been a couple of check-ins recently

http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=lilypond.git;a=search;s=Zefram;st=author

That are specific to \articulate.

Can someone verify if this changes/resolves any part of this tracker?

I've looked over this and the midi section in the NR.

Notes about having a a separate \score section (one with the normal music + \layout) and one with just \midi is already mentioned in the repeats in MIDI section.

However I feel this whole 3.5.x section is slightly messy in terms of its ordering and there are a some 'doc policy' issues (@seealso and spacing discrepancies across the 3.5.x sections) that I am going to tidy up first in a separate tracker (not yet created).

Then I suggest we move the Articulate script section from its current position of 3.5.8 to 3.5.5 (so every other section shifts down accordingly) and then remove/move/merge (as appropriate) information that pertains to the Articulate script from the other now-proceeding sections into the new 3.5.5/Articulate script section or possibly simplify the Articulate script section further and just make the examples/explanations in 3.5.6-8 better/consistent.

Doc: NR section 3.5.x MIDI file creation tidy up

Issue 2877

This issue is specific to the articulate.ly
documentation but I feel we're just trying
to constantly patch a messy section. So this
is an attempt to tidy up this section.

No new information has been added apart from more
@cindex or @seealso references; and nothing
(technical) has been removed either.

Tthere has been a re-titling and re-ordering
of the @nodes in an attempt to make the MIDI
explanations follow a more step-by-step, logical
order.

The introduction has been shortened and @knownissues
have been moved. Where technical information has
been 'deleted', it will have been moved to either
a more appropriate place in the subsection, or into a
different subsection within @node.

Still need to spell check and make sure there is no duplicated information, also to check the sectioning follows the CG

Doc: NR section 3.5.x MIDI file creation tidy up

Issue 2877

This issue is specific to the articulate.ly
documentation but I feel we're constantly
updating a 'messy' chapter that doesn't really
follow many of the CG guidelines and could
be better organized.

So this is an attempt to tidy up. Apart from
some @cindex or @seealso references no new
information has been added and nothing
technical has been removed but some of it
has been moved around so that it is grouped
more logically.

I realise this is a big patch and I did
try to figure out how to make it in smaller
bite-size chunks but it would have been
hard to keep it coherent while undergoing
the change (and is probably why no one has
really tackled this section to tidy it up).

In the end after some editing I just decided
to carry on a complete the chapter as a whole.

Some snippets have been created from the
main text as they were inappropriate for the
NR and the Articulate script now contains
some additional comments based on previously
added NR @knownissues that were just a list
of things that the script didn't support and
which I felt were better *in* the articulate
file itself.

The @lilypond examples have been simplified
and turned into @examples instead as the
engraving output is largely irrelevant
in a section about MIDI; it also saves a lot
of space.

There is a longer introduction and the sections
have been organized in such a way that it starts
with how to create MIDI files with the default
empty MIDI block, then explains how to use
repeats and multiple voicces in MIDI (again
still with no MIDI block modifications).
The next subsection then moves to enhancing
the MIDI output by adding Instruments and then
talks about setting MIDI block properties
finally moving onto the Articulate script.

The last part of the chapter then talks about
Dynamics and Volume - it seemed more sensible
to group those two together and as some of the
volume settings are more complex they are at
the end of the chapter.
