SHA512SUM(1)                  User Commands                  SHA512SUM(1)

NAME
       sha512sum - compute and check SHA512 message digest

SYNOPSIS
       sha512sum [OPTION]... [FILE]...

DESCRIPTION
       Print or check SHA512 (512-bit) checksums.

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

       -b, --binary
              read in binary mode

       -c, --check
              read SHA512 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-180-2.  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  indi‐
       cating 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.
