Introducion

This is a very simple C project to create and verify MD5 and SHA256 checksum of files.

The main thing is it uses same format as Linux md5sum/sha256sum utility, so you can create and verify checksum files what created with that.

Installation

If you trying use this under another OS than Mac OSX, please make sure OpenSSL libs and headers are installed.

cd md5sum-osx
mkdir build
cd build

Known limitations

  • The parser can handle only file names with length 990 byte (UTF-8 characters counted as 2 byte).

If you got any errors or have any suggestions, feel free to contact me over github or over GMail (just type hrgyster before GMail's domain).

Have a lot of fun!
