NAME

       mdsum - compute file digests using any supported algorithms.

SYNOPSIS

       mdsum [options] [paths...]

DESCRIPTION

       This  command  computes	a  message digest for one or more specified files.  If no files are specified, then stdin can be used.	Any digest
       algorithm available in libusecure may be selected and used.  Entire directory trees  may  also  be  examined  and  computed  using  the	-R
       (--recursive) option.

OPTIONS

       --digest=name
	      Specify  name  of  digest algorithm.  By default md5 will be used, unless the command is executed through a symlink which happens to
	      match an algorithm name.

       --follow
	      Dereference and follow symlinks.	Otherwise they are ignored.

       --recursive
	      If argument is a directory, recursively scan directory and any subdirectory contents as arguments.

       --help Outputs help screen for the user.
