I found something very weird!
Should I report that as a bug or is it me misusing the command?
I've got a file with a backslash in its name.
I know it's a horrible policy but it's not me.
The file came from a mac computer because this is a backup server.
Anyway, when using md5sum on the file, I get a very weird output.
Check it out :
Do you have an explanation? a solution?
Hi all,
I am kinda puzzled. When and Why do we use md5sum? I've read man pages for mp5sum, but didn't get anything out of it. Please, can someone explain this to me in couple of words.
Thank you all. (1 Reply)

How do I remove a backslash character \ from a file?
I have used
sed -e "s|\||g" filename > newfile
I have done several permutations on this to no avail such as:
sed -e "s|`\`||g" filename > newfile
sed -e "s|""\""||g" filename > newfile
What am I doing wrong?:confused:

Hello Firends

Hello.
I'm writing a script where every file you create will generate a md5sum and store it into a text file.
Say I create 2 files, it'll look like this in the text file:

zdiff
ZDIFF(1) BSD General Commands Manual ZDIFF(1)NAME
zcmp, zdiff -- compare compressed files
SYNOPSIS
zcmp [options] file [file2]
zdiff [options] file [file2]
DESCRIPTION
zcmp and zdiff are filters that invoke cmp(1) or diff(1) respectively to compare compressed files. Any options that are specified are passed
to cmp(1) or diff(1).
If only file1 is specified, it is compared against a file with the same name, but with the extension removed. When both file1 or file2 are
specified, either file may be compressed.
Extensions handled by gzip(1):
o z, Z,
o gz,
o taz,
o tgz.
Extensions handled by bzip2(1):
o bz,
o bz2,
o tbz,
o tbz2.
Extensions handled by xz(1):
o lzma,
o xz,
o tlz,
o txz.
ENVIRONMENT
TMPDIR Directory in which to place temporary files. If unset, /tmp is used.
FILES
/tmp/zcmp.XXXXXXXXXX Temporary file for zcmp.
/tmp/zdiff.XXXXXXXXXX Temporary file for zdiff.
SEE ALSO bzip2(1), cmp(1), diff(1), gzip(1), xz(1)CAVEATS
zcmp and zdiff rely solely on the file extension to determine what is, or is not, a compressed file. Consequently, the following are not
supported as arguments:
- directories
- device special files
- filenames indicating the standard input (``-'')
