SYNOPSIS
     mdigest -a algorithm [ options ] [ file1 ... filen ]

DESCRIPTION
     mdigest  reads  the files from the argument list and computes a message di-
     gest hash for the file content.  If the  argument	list  is  empty  mdigest
     reads from standard in.

OPTIONS
     All options can be abbreviated by their first letter.

     -a algorithm
	    Specified the message digest hash algorithm to use.

     -l     Lists  the	available  message digest hash algorithms. This list may
	    depend on the platform and the compiler that was used to create  the
	    binary.

     -help  Prints a short summary of the mdigest(1) options and exists.

     -verbose

	    the output.

     -version
	    Prints the mdigest(1) version number string and exists.

NOTES
     If you call mdigest with no file type arguments, it will compute the digest
     for stdin.
