💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

Compute and check message digests. periodt. it does the math, you get the digest, everyone slays. 🦋

---

✨ OPTIONS ✨

okay so here's the whole menu, and no we are NOT skipping any of them, every single one is getting its moment 👑

• -b, --binary — read in binary mode 🫶
• -c, --check — read hashsums from the FILEs and check them. it's giving verification era 🔍
• --tag — create a BSD-style checksum
• -t, --text — read in text mode (this is the default, so if you don't say anything it's already on this vibe)
• -q, --quiet — don't print OK for each successfully verified file. lowkey humble of it 🙈
• -s, --status — don't output anything, status code shows success. silent but the exit code is speaking volumes 💀
• --strict — exit non-zero for improperly formatted checksum lines. it does NOT play about formatting
• --ignore-missing — don't fail or report status for missing files
• -w, --warn — warn about improperly formatted checksum lines
• -z, --zero — end each output line with NUL, not newline
• --bits <BITS> — set the size of the output (only for SHAKE). that's the whole point of the SHAKE girlies ✨
• -h, --help — Print help
• -V, --version — Print version
• [file] — yeah. the file. the main character of the operation 🌟
