NAME

md5 - compute MD5 signatures  

SYNOPSIS

md5 file(s) ...
 

DESCRIPTION

md5 opens the named file(s) in order (standard input by default) and computes the md5 checksum for each file.

The output format is one line per file with the checksum and corresponding file name separated by whitespace (no file name is emitted when reading from standard input).

This program has a somewhat easier to parse output format than the md5 utility found on some UNIX systems.
