Hi Ray, As the error states, xmfa2maf does not support alignments that span multiple contigs or chromosomes. This would be a nice feature to have but isn't exactly trivial to implement. One workaround might be to concatenate all of your sequences prior to alignment, although that may complicate whatever you plan to do next with the MAF.
