I have a question concerning MacLayers. Whenever I try to download
files which have been converted using xbin (so that I have the three
component files), MacLayers seems to always fail (it goes into a
retry, which never succeeds). This also happens when I try to download
bin files obtained from RASCAL (I am using the -d switch on macbput
for these downloads). Curiously (I'm not sure if this is a coincident),
the past two files have failed on block 38.

This happens with almost every file I have tried. The only success I have
had is downloading .hqx files to my Mac (using -u switch) and doing the
decoding, etc on the Mac.

Any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong would be most appreciated.
