:I've tried a few different sources for Stuffit-1.6 (Sumex.stanford.edu 
:and comp.binaries.mac).  When I get the binhexed file to my mac I get a
:CRC (or is it Checksum) error during the de-binhexing.  I've tried both
:ethernet and modem downloading to a mac to get the file.  All attempts
:result in the same message.   Is anyone else having a problem with the
:binhexed file?  Or should I be looking for another reason for the error?

I also had the same problem, however mcvert does not choke on the hqx file.

I have not used mcvert before, and I have not tried to unstuff mcvert's
output yet. ( so I cant say if mcvert handled the error or didn't
even detect it? )
