hash-sum - print only the checksum - quiet mode
For some time I had in mind option to hash-sum that would only print checksum without filename as it is very useful when using calculated hashes. As there is no simple way to get rid of it, other than with external command like awk, I decided to add something simple to hash-sum command/s. I
Re: Re: hash-sum - print only the checksum --hash
Here is a diff with separate option for hash only ( -H, --hash ). If you decide to change the name you do not have to wrote it from the scratch. Hope it passes quality control. digest-H.diff Description: Binary data

Re: Re: hash-sum - print only the checksum - quiet mode
"Using the --quiet option for this seems a little awkward. Is it pun to awk? One reason we added the --raw option, was for this single input case. It is not the same. I.e. please consider using something like this example:" cksum --raw -a md5 | basenc --base16 What is a diffe
Re: Re: hash-sum - print only the checksum - quiet mode
I'm unsure of which command hash-sum is,I meant every hash sum that uses mechanism in digest.c, and is called XYZsum, namely md5/sha1/sha256/...sum. but I note that toybox has been using -b (brief) in md5sum through sha3sum for 10 years now: In coreutils XXXsum - stands for --binary [1
