OPENSLIDE-QUICKHASH1SUM(1)	  User Commands       OPENSLIDE-QUICKHASH1SUM(1)

NAME
     openslide-quickhash1sum - Print OpenSlide quickhash-1 checksums

SYNOPSIS
     openslide-quickhash1sum [--help] [--version] slide...

DESCRIPTION
     Print  OpenSlide quickhash-1 checksums for one or more virtual slide files,
     in a format similar to sha256sum(1).

     quickhash-1 is a non-cryptographic, 256-bit hash of a subset of  a  slide's
     data.   It  uniquely  identifies  a particular virtual slide, but cannot be
     used to detect corruption or modification of the slide file.

OPTIONS
     --help
	    Display usage summary.

     --version
	    Display version and copyright information.

EXIT STATUS
     openslide-quickhash1sum returns 0 on success, 1 if a quickhash-1 could  not
     be calculated, or 2 if the arguments are invalid.

NOTES
     openslide-quickhash1sum  is  a  legacy  command and no new features will be
     added.  Its replacement is the slide quickhash1 subcommand of slidetool(1).

BUGS
     quickhash-1 is not defined for all slide files supported by OpenSlide.   If
     a	slide  does  not  have a quickhash-1, "No quickhash-1 available" will be
     printed.
