I tried to change to OCR-B or Inconsolata http://stackoverflow.com/questions/316068/what-is-the-ideal-font-for-ocr but getting that to work with enscript is not easy, as you have to find and install afm and pfb into the correct directories. This goes a lot deeper than just installing packages provided by whatever disto you are using. So I think that this would move the bar for a possible user of paperbackup.py higher than I want to. > Additionally, base64 has look-alike characters, and the only checksum is > for the whole key.

Can you recommend a tool to create a short checksum (crc32?) for each line? Ideally it is a tool or combination of tools already deployed widely, like sed and sort I used in paperrestore. This would make the checksums still usable even when the source to paperbackup.py isn't available anymore.
