SHA1SUM(1)                       User Commands                      SHA1SUM(1)

NAME
       sha1sum - compute and check SHA1 message digest

SYNOPSIS
       sha1sum [OPTION]... [FILE]...

DESCRIPTION
       Print or check SHA1 (160-bit) checksums.

       With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input.

       -b, --binary
              read in binary mode

       -c, --check
              read SHA1 sums from the FILEs and check them

       --tag  create a BSD-style checksum

       -t, --text
              read in text mode (default)

       -z, --zero
              end  each  output  line  with NUL, not newline, and disable file
              name escaping

   The following five options are useful only when verifying checksums:
       --ignore-missing
              don't fail or report status for missing files

       --quiet
              don't print OK for each successfully verified file

       --status
              don't output anything, status code shows success

       --strict
              exit non-zero for improperly formatted checksum lines

       -w, --warn
              warn about improperly formatted checksum lines

       --help display this help and exit

       --version
              output version information and exit

       The sums are computed as described in FIPS-180-1.  When  checking,  the
       input  should  be a former output of this program.  The default mode is
       to print a line with checksum, a space, a  character  indicating  input
       mode  ('*'  for binary, ' ' for text or where binary is insignificant),
       and name for each FILE.

       Note: There is no difference between binary mode and text mode  on  GNU
       systems.

BUGS
       Do not use the SHA-1 algorithm for security related purposes.  Instead,
       use an SHA-2  algorithm,  implemented  in  the  programs  sha224sum(1),
       sha256sum(1),  sha384sum(1),  sha512sum(1),  or  the  BLAKE2 algorithm,
       implemented in b2sum(1)
