Are you sure that GSCII+ tried to unshrink the file or did you tell it
to try and unshrink to file?  You made it sound like that after the
binscii conversion was done that it tried to unshrink the resulting
shrinkit file on its own.  I've never seen this happen.

However, if you tried to use GSCII+ to unshrink a file, then the results
that you got are typical.  GSCII+ cannot unshrik files.  It only 
un-binscii's them.
