I wrote this program to make md5 checksums for directory trees. It generates a file in each directory, whose name is specified by the CKNAME variable. When rerun, if there are any differenes, the old file is renamed to OLD_CKNAME, and a new file is created. diff is run on the two files, and the differences are written to standard output. The program should work anywhere there is a python 2.6 or newer interpreter. To use the program, md5sum.py . > a_log_file.txt Contact info: jdeifik@jdeifik.com
