NAME

6       sha512sum - compute and check SHA512 message digest
7

SYNOPSIS

9       sha512sum [OPTION]... [FILE]...
10

DESCRIPTION

12       Print  or check SHA512 (512-bit) checksums.  With no FILE, or when FILE
13       is -, read standard input.
14
15       -b, --binary
16              read in binary mode
17
18       -c, --check
19              read SHA512 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.
28
29   The following four options are useful only when verifying checksums:
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-180-2.  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.
