@node MIDI articulation
@subsection MIDI articulation
-TODO stub for info about Dr. Peter Chubb's @file{articulate.ly}
+LilyPond can be used to produce MIDI output, for `proof-hearing' what
+has been written. However, only dynamics, explicit tempo markings,
+and the notes and durations themselves are produced in the output.
+
+At
address@hidden://@/www@/.nicta@/.com@/.au/@/people/@/chubbp/@/articulate}
+is one attempt to get more of the information in the score into the
+MIDI. It works by shortening notes not under slurs, to `articulate'
+the notes. The amount of shortening depends on any
+articulation markings attached to a note: staccato halves the note
+value, tenuto gives a note its full duration, and so on.
+
+The script also realises trills and turns, and could be extended to
+expand other ornaments such as mordents.
+
+Its main limitation is that it can only affect things it knows about:
+anything that is merely textual markup (instead of a note property) is
+still ignored.
