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 -t, --text
22 read in text mode (default)
23
24 Note: There is no difference between binary and text mode option
25 on GNU system.
26
27 The following three options are useful only when verifying checksums:
28 --quiet
29 don't print OK for each successfully verified file
30
31 --status
32 don't output anything, status code shows success
33
34 -w, --warn
35 warn about improperly formatted checksum lines
36
37 --help display this help and exit
38
39 --version
40 output version information and exit
41
42 The sums are computed as described in FIPS-180-1. When checking, the
43 input should be a former output of this program. The default mode is
44 to print a line with checksum, a character indicating type (`*' for
45 binary, ` ' for text), and name for each FILE.
