NAME

6       sha512sum - compute and check SHA512 message digest

SYNOPSIS

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

DESCRIPTION

12       Print or check SHA512 (512-bit) checksums.
13
14       With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input.
15
16       -b, --binary
17              read in binary mode
18
19       -c, --check
20              read SHA512 sums from the FILEs and check them
21
22       --tag  create a BSD-style checksum
23
24       -t, --text
25              read in text mode (default)
26
27              Note: There is no difference between binary and text mode option
28              on GNU system.  -z, --zero           end each output  line  with
29              NUL, not newline,
30
31              and disable file name escaping
32
33   The following five options are useful only when verifying checksums:
34       --ignore-missing
35              don't fail or report status for missing files
36
37       --quiet
38              don't print OK for each successfully verified file
39
40       --status
41              don't output anything, status code shows success
42
43       --strict
44              exit non-zero for improperly formatted checksum lines
45
46       -w, --warn
47              warn about improperly formatted checksum lines
48
49       --help display this help and exit
50
51       --version
52              output version information and exit
53
54       The  sums  are computed as described in FIPS-180-2.  When checking, the
55       input should be a former output of this program.  The default  mode  is
56       to  print  a  line with checksum, a space, a character indicating input
57       mode ('*' for binary, ' ' for text or where binary  is  insignificant),
58       and name for each FILE.
