Why do you think that the second chord should have two stems when the
first has only one?

The generated PMX-code is "... d44f zg-f ... c4 zbr ...". This generates
the two chords you see. A correct notation for the chord would be "b4 zcr"
- the upper note to the right. But then too you'll get only one stem
and it's an up stem because it's in the upper voice.

There's midi2tex; but as far as I've heard it's not the most powerful
thing. So it may be a useful work for someone who is interested in
the result and knows programming and midi, to re-write it, to 
generate either M-Tx or PMX. If I remember right there was at least
one posting to list in the last time with the same problem.

Please look for it in the archive of the list at http://www.gmd.de/Mail/mutex/
