DIGEST(1)		  BSD General Commands Manual		     DIGEST(1)

NAME
     digest — calculate message digests

SYNOPSIS
     digest algorithm [file ...]

DESCRIPTION
     The digest utility calculates message digests of files or, if no file is
     specified, standard input.	 The list of possible algorithms is:

     md5     the md5(3) algorithm will be used.

     rmd160  the rmd160(3) algorithm will be used.

     sha1    the sha1(3) algorithm will be used.

     sha256  the sha256 algorithm will be used.

     sha384  the sha384 algorithm will be used.

     sha512  the sha512 algorithm will be used.

     tiger   the tiger algorithm will be used.

     whirlpool
	     the whirlpool algorithm will be used.

     The digest utility is a simple wrapper for the various different algo‐
     rithm implementations, which are located in the standard C library, and
     was designed to be scalable as new message digest algorithms are devel‐
     oped.

     The digest utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

     cksum(1), md5(3), rmd160(3), sha1(3)

HISTORY
     The digest utility first appeared in NetBSD 1.6.

AUTHORS
     The digest utility was written by Alistair G. Crooks ⟨agc@netbsd.org⟩.
