Ftp retrieve/c [Indigo]DStar>CIFMann>ManntoCIF.bcd 3. To look at layer 4 on file-4.mann (for example) type: jam magic (manntocif.bcd).loadbcd and when jam has started, type to it: (file-4) 4 mtoc which will create the cif file file-4.cif. Notice the absence of the extension .mann in the file name - this is important.
