4
6 sha1sum - compute and check SHA1 message digest
7
9 sha1sum [OPTION]... [FILE]...
10
12 Print or check SHA1 (160-bit) checksums. With no FILE, or when FILE is
13 -, read standard input.
14
15 -b, --binary
16 read in binary mode
17
18 -c, --check
19 read SHA1 sums from the FILEs and check them
20
21 --tag create a BSD-style checksum
22
23 -t, --text
24 read in text mode (default)
25
26 Note: There is no difference between binary and text mode option
27 on GNU system.

30 --quiet
31 don't print OK for each successfully verified file
32
33 --status
34 don't output anything, status code shows success
35
36 --strict
37 exit non-zero for improperly formatted checksum lines
38
39 -w, --warn
40 warn about improperly formatted checksum lines
41
42 --help display this help and exit
43
44 --version
45 output version information and exit
46
47 The sums are computed as described in FIPS-180-1. When checking, the
48 input should be a former output of this program. The default mode is
49 to print a line with checksum, a character indicating input mode ('*'
50 for binary, space for text), and name for each FILE.
