Re: problem with articulate and ties in chords

[Peter Chubb]

I've taken a look at  this now ... there's no easy way to fix the
problem.  To articulate something like

    <a~ c>4 <a c>

you need to split the c into a note and a rest.  At present it rewites
it, essentially, to 

    <a~ c>8.. r16 <a c>4

To make this work, it'd have to rewrite to:

    <<{a4~ a} \\ {c8.. r16 c4}>>

and unfortunately that's beyond my scheme ability.
If you split it before articulate sees it, like so:

   << {a ~ a} {c c}>>

the MIDI will be correct. You need to fiddle stem directions usually,
to make the PDF look OK when you do this.
