OK, while we're at it . . .

dsMD5 v. 1.02 (6kb) is another MD5 utility, and dsSHA v. 1.02 (7kb) is a SHA utility. Both are available at http://members.ozemail.com.au/~nulifetv ... /freeware/ .

I have posted dsMD5 and dsSHA to the database.

dsMD5 is in our database (https://www.portablefreeware.com/?id=1072) but has no dedicated forum topic; no big deal, as it is probably abandoned, with is homepage gone.

Still, it has an entry and several related posts around the forums, so I decided to create this holdall topic in "Discussion", as it wouldn't make any sense in "Submissions"...

Original blurb wrote:
dsMD5 produces MD5 digital file signature (use like dsSHA).

BTW, here's a quick'n'dirty™ script to use dsMD5 to create full-form sidecar checksums even for files with spaces in their names:

Code: Select all

REM Solves dsMD5 not saving directly for files with spaces in file name.
REM ONLY WORKS WITH FILES PLACED IN dsMD5 FOLDER!

dsMD5.exe %1
ECHO  *%~nx1>> "%~nx1.MD5.txt"
REN "%~nx1.MD5.txt" "%~n1.md5"

Same drill for dsSHA (https://www.portablefreeware.com/?id=1073).

original blurb wrote:dsSHA produces SHA-1 digital file signature. Like CRC or MD5 it can be used for detection of file tampering by viruses, hackers, etc. and integrity verification of copied or downloaded files. dsSHA is so small that it could be simply included in distribution packages. dsSHA is fast, dependency-free and does not need things like MFC or VB.
