Calculate or check cryptographic SHA checksums. More information: https://manned.org/shasum.

• Calculate the SHA1 checksum for a file:

shasum {{path/to/file}}

• Calculate the SHA256 checksum for a file:

shasum --algorithm 256 {{path/to/file}}

• Calculate the SHA512 checksum for multiple files:

shasum --algorithm 512 {{path/to/file1}} {{path/to/file2}}

• Calculate and save the list of SHA256 checksums to a file:

shasum --algorithm 256 {{path/to/file1}} {{path/to/file2}} > {{path/to/file.sha256}}

• Check a file with a list of sums against the directory's files:

shasum --check {{path/to/file}}

• Check a list of sums and only show a message for files for which verification fails:

shasum --check --quiet {{path/to/file}}

• Calculate the SHA1 checksum from stdin:
