# md5sum
> Calculate MD5 cryptographic checksums.
> More information: <https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/md5sum>.
- Calculate the MD5 checksum for a file:
`md5sum {{path/to/file}}`
- Calculate MD5 checksums for multiple files:
`md5sum {{path/to/file1}} {{path/to/filen2}}`
- Calculate a MD5 checksum from the standard input:
`echo "{{text}}" | md5sum`
- Read a file of MD5SUMs and verify all files have matching checksums:
`md5sum --check {{path/to/file.md5}}`
- Only show a message for missing files or when verification fails:
`md5sum --check --quiet {{path/to/file.md5}}`
- Only show a message for files for which verification fails, ignoring missing files:
`md5sum --ignore-missing --check --quiet {{path/to/file.md5}}`
