Jacksum is a free and platform independent utility for computing and verifying checksums, CRCs and hashes (message digests) as well as timestamps of files. Jacksum is written entirely in Java. A Java Runtime Environment (JRE), at least version 1.3.1 or any equivalent JRE is required. At least JRE 1.4.2 is recommended.
The following parameters are supported:
file
a path name of a file to be checked. Wildcards are supported. They depend on the shell you are running. With no file, or when the file is character "-", standard input is read.
The following options are supported:
-a algo
the algorithm, default is sha-1 since Jacksum 1.0.0, see also -A. Algorithms can be combinded by the plus character, e. g. "sha1+crc32", "bsd+crc24+xor8". If you specify "-a all" all supported algorithms are used, see also -F. As soon as "all" or a plus character is used, the output is normalized with a hex checksum and a decimal filesize. Examples: "sha+", "md5+". Feature available since Jacksum 1.7.0, see also -A, -F.
-A
Alternate. By default Jacksum uses algorithms provided by the Java API if available, because those are optimized by the JVM vendor, they usually provide very good performance. If -A is set, Jacksum uses an alternate, pure Java implementation of an algorithm (if available). Actually, Jacksum supports alternate implementations for the following algorithms: adler32, crc32, md5, sha-1, sha-256, sha-384, sha-512 since Jacksum 1.5.0, see also -a.
-c list
checks the integrity against a given list. The list is usually a former output of Jacksum, ideally created with option -m. You can also check against a list which was created by a different application. In this case, you need to specify all parameters which are necessary to produce the same output. The parameter -F will be ignored. To exclude files, just remove lines from the list. Feature available since Jacksum 1.3.0, see also -l -I and -m.
-d
directories (regular) only. Don't follow symbolic links on Linux/Unix. A symbolic link from a subfolder to a parent folder could cause endless loops under Unix/Linux while recursively traversing the tree. If this option is set, symbolic links to directories will be ignored. This option will be ignored under Windows. Feature available since Jacksum 1.5.0, See also -r.
-e seq
expectation. A sequence for the calculation is expected. Works with a file, standard input or option -q. Returns OK (exit code 0) or MISMATCH (exit code 1). Available since Jacksum 1.4.0. Works also with multiple files or directories to find duplicates, in which case all findings are printed out. The sequence can be specified either case sensitive or case insensitive, except if Base 64 encoding (by -E) has been specified. Available since Jacksum 1.6.0, see also -a, -q, -E, -x and -X.
-E encoding
encoding. The checksum can be encoded:
bin Binary
dec Decimal
oct Octal
hex Hexadecimal in lowercase (same as -x)
hexup Hexadecimal in uppercase (same as -X)
base16 Base 16 (as defined by RFC 3548)
base32 Base 32 (as defined by RFC 3548)
base64 Base 64 (as defined by RFC 3548)
bb BubbleBabble (used by OpenSSH and SSH2)
available since Jacksum 1.6.0, see also -x and -X.
-f
process files only, this option suppresses the messages "... Is a
directory" and " ... Is not a regular file". Available since
Jacksum 1.0.0, see also -V.
-F format
Set a customizable output format to overwrite the default.
Available since Jacksum 1.5.0, if not other specified, see also
-a, -E, -g, -G, -p, -P, -s, -t, -x, -X.
#ALGONAME will be replaced by the name of the algorithm
#ALGONAME{i} see also #CHECKSUM{i}
#CHECKSUM will be replaced by the hash, CRC or sum value
(depends on -a, -b, -g, -G, -x, -X)
#CHECKSUM{i} If the character called + has been used to
separate multiple algorithms at option -a, the
token will be replaced with the checksum. The
token is indexed by a number. If you use the
character called i rather than a number, it
works like an automatic index. (1.6)
#FILENAME will be replaced by the filename and path (depends
on -p and -P)
#FILENAME{NAME} will be replaced by the filename (1.5)
#FILENAME{PATH} will be replaced by the filepath (1.5)
#FILESIZE will be replaced by the filesize
#FINGERPRINT is an alias for #CHECKSUM
#SEPARATOR will be replaced by the separator which you can
specify with -s
#TIMESTAMP will be replaced by the timestamp (depends on -t)
#QUOTE will be replaced by one quote char (")
-g count
group the hex output for the checksum in "count" bytes for better readability. Only valid if encoding is hex or hexup. Groups are separated by a blank or by the character specified by -G. The value for count must be greater than 0. Available since Jacksum 1.6.0, see also -E, -G, -x and -X -G char group character. Only valid if encoding is hexadecimal and -g has been set.
-h [lang] [section]
print help, valid codes for "lang" are "en" or "de", default is "en"; valid values for "section" are strings like headers or options. See section EXAMPLES for more information. Available since Jacksum 1.0.0, parameter section since Jacksum 1.6.0, see also -v.
-I string
ignore. While creating a list by -m or reading a list by -c, lines are ignored if they start with the specified string. Available since Jacksum 1.6.0, see also -c and -m.
-l
list. Just list files which were modified or deleted. In combination with -c only. Available since Jacksum 1.4.0, see also -c.
-m
print metainfo. Additional lines will be printed. With the metainfo available you can check files against a given list without the need to specify a lot of commandline parameters. Any customized format you can normally specify with -F are ignored. Available since Jacksum 1.3.0, see also -c.
-o file
output. The output of the program goes to a file rather than the standard output. The program exits with a warning if the file exists. The file which is specified by -o is excluded from the calculation process. Available since Jacksum 1.6.0, see also -O, -u and -U.
-O file
output. Same as -o, however an existing file will be overwritten without any warning. See also -U. Available since Jacksum 1.6.0, see also -o, -u and -U.
-p
path. Put the path info on each line, instead of printing a header for each directory while processing folders recursively (-r). With this option the output will increase, but on the flip side it will be much easier to sort or grep the lines with corresponding programs. Available since Jacksum 1.4.0, see also -F, -P, -r and -w.
-P char
path separator. By default, the system-dependent default file name separator character is used. On Unix systems the character is the slash (/), on Microsoft Windows systems it is the back slash (\). You can change the default if a special output format for filenames (such as HTML links) is required. Available since Jacksum 1.5.0, see also -F and -p.
-q [type:]seq
process a sequence quickly and quit the program. The type can be used to specify the type of the sequence (text, hexadecimal or decimal):
txt:Example1 hex:4578616D706C6531 dec:69,120,97,109,112,108,101,49 4578616D706C6531
If type is not set, the seq is expected to be in hex form. If type is set to "txt", the platform's default charset will be used to interpret the sequence called seq. Available since Jacksum 1.3.0 (hex only), type since 1.5.0.
-r
process subdirectory recursively (without a file parameter the current directory is used). Available since Jacksum 1.0.0, see also -p and -w.
-s sep
a custom separator string (\t, \n, \r, will be translated). The default value depends on the checksum algorithm. Available since Jacksum 1.0.0, see also -F.
-S
summary. This calculates just one checksum value. All files, the directory structures, the filenames and timestamps (if requested) are part of that checksum. See also -w. Available since Jacksum 1.5.0, see also -r and -w.
-t form
a timestamp format. Java's formatter class SimpleDateFormat will be used. Valid characters are
G Era designator y Year M Month in year w Week in year W Week in month D Day in year d Day in month F Day of week in month E Day in week a AM/PM marker H Hour in day (0-23) k Hour in day (1-24) K Hour in am/pm (0-11) h Hour in am/pm (1-12) m Minute in hour s Second in minute S Millisecond z Time zone, general Z Time zone, RFC 822
If form is set to the word "default", timestamps will be formatted with "yyyyMMddHHmmss". since Jacksum 1.3.0
#SEPARATOR will be replaced by the separator which you
can specify with -s
#QUOTE will be replaced by one quote char (")
Available since Jacksum 1.6.0, see also -F.
-u file
ugly, undesirable, unforeseen, uninvited. Any error messages of the program is redirected to a file rather than the standard error. The program exits if the file exists. The file which is specified by -u is excluded from the calculation process. Available since Jacksum 1.6.0, see also -U, -o and -O.
-U file
ugly, undesirable, unforeseen, uninvited. Same as -u, however an existing file will be overwritten without any warning. See also -O. Available since Jacksum 1.6.0, see also -u, -o and -O.
-v
version. Prints the product version and exits. Available since Jacksum 1.2.0, see also -h.
-V control
verbose. Prints additional information. If -V is the only parameter it behaves like -v. "control" can be one of the following keywords which must be separated by a comma:
details | nodetails Errors with or without details warnings | nowarnings Warnings or no warnings summary | nosummary Summary at the end or not
If control is set to "default", control is set to "details,warnings,nosummary". Available since Jacksum 1.6.0, see also -f and -v.
-w
The file parameter (the last parameter) is intended to be the working directory. This allows to create relative path names rather than absolute ones. Only valid if the file parameter is a directory. Available since Jacksum 1.6.0, see also -r and -S.
-x
lowercase hex output for the checksum, it is an alias for -E hex. Available since Jacksum 1.1.0, see also -E.
-X
uppercase hex output for the checksum, it is an alias for -E hexup. Available since Jacksum 1.1.0, see also -E.

crc:<params> algorithm: CRC length: 8..64 bits type: crc since: Jacksum 1.7.0 comment: With this generic CRC you can specify all CRC- algorithms which can be described by the famous "Rocksoft (tm) Model CRC Algorithm". <params> must have 6 values, which must be separated by a comma. Those are: width,poly,init,refIn,refOut,xorOut width - width of the crc, expressed in bits. This is one less than the width of the poly. poly - the polynomial, specify as hex The top bit of the poly should be omitted. For example, if the poly is 10110, you should specify 06. An important aspect of this parameter is that it represents the unreflected poly; the bottom bit of this parameter is always the LSB of the divisor during the division regardless of whether the algorithm being modelled is reflected. init - this parameter specifies the initial value of the register when the algorithm starts. Specify as hex. refIn - this is a boolean parameter. If it is false, input bytes are processed with bit 7 being treated as the most significant bit (MSB) and bit 0 being treated as the least significant bit. If this parameter is false, each byte is reflected before being processed. true or false refOut - this is a boolean parameter. If it is set to false, the final value in the register is fed into the xorOut stage directly, otherwise, if this parameter is true, the final register value is reflected first. xorOut - this value is XORed to the final register value (after the refOut) stage before the value is returned as the official checksum, specify as hex

The output format of Jacksum:
If you don't specify a customized format with option -F, the following format is used:
<checksum><sep><filesize><sep>[<timestamp><sep>]<filename>
checksum
is a checksum, CRC or a fingerprint; output depends on options -a and -x, resp. -X
sep
is a separator; it can be modified by -s, otherwise it depends on -a and -m
filesize
is the size (bytes or blocks) of a file, it depends on -a, the filesize won't be written by any MessageDigest-algorithm
timestamp
is an optional timestamp of a file; timestamps can be requested with -t
filename
is a filename, paths can be part of the output, output depends on -p and -P.
0 - everthing is OK 1 - there was at least one mismatch during the verification process >1 - in case of a parameter-, .jacksum- or I/O-error
jacksum -a crc32 -q "txt:Hello World!"
calculates a 32-bit CRC of the text "Hello World!"
jacksum -a crc32 -q 48656C6C6F20576F726C6421
calculates a 32-bit CRC of the hex sequence 48656C6C6F20576F726C6421 which represents "Hello World!"
jacksum -a crc32 -x *.txt
calculates a 32 bit CRC of all textfiles within the current folder. The checksum will be printed in a hexadecimal format (-x).
jacksum -a crc32 -f -t default .
not only CRCs will be printed, but also timestamps (-t) of all files within the current folder (.). The message "is a directory" will be suppressed (-f).
jacksum -f -a crc:16,1021,FFFF,false,false,0 .
a CRC with customized parameters has been used: 16 Bit, Polynomial 1021 (hex, without the leading bit), initvalue FFFF (hex), mirror neither the input nor the output, no xor.
jacksum -a haval_256_5 .
calculates a 256 bit hash with 5 rounds by using the haval algorithm (haval_256_5) of all files within the current folder (.).
jacksum -a sha1 -s "\t" -t "EEE, MMM d, yyyy 'at' h:mm a" .
calculates a 160 bit SHA-1 Message-Digest of all files within the current folder. The separator string (-s) is set to the tabulator char ("\t"). Timestamps of files will be printed out in a customized format (-t).
jacksum -a cksum -r /mnt/share
calculates a 32 bit CRC with the standard Unix-algorithm cksum of all files /mnt/share and it's subfolders (-r)
jacksum -a md5 -f -r -m -o list.jacksum /data
calculates the Message-Digest MD5 of all files in /data and it's subfolders (-r), furthermore it prints metainfo (-m) and stores output to list.jacksum, path information is stored ABSOLUTELY
jacksum -a md5 -f -r -m -o list.jacksum -w /data
calculates the Message-Digest MD5 of all files in /data and it's subfolders (-r), furthermore it prints metainfo (-m) and stores output to list.jacksum, path information is stored RELATIVELY
jacksum -c list.jacksum
verifies all checksums resp. timestamps stored in a file called list.jacksum. list.jacksum must be generated first with option -m
jacksum -a md5 -f -F "#FINGERPRINT #FILESIZE #FILENAME" *
calculates the Message-Digest MD5 of all files in the current directory. The output format is customized, it prints also the filesize.
jacksum -a md5 -A -V summary bigfile.iso
Among others it also returns the elapsed time (-V summary) which was necessary to calculate the MD5 Hash of the file called bigfile.iso by using the alternate MD5 implementation (-A).
jacksum -a crc32 -X -f -p -r -F "#FILENAME #CHECKSUM" -o list.sfv *
prints CRC-32 values in the Simple File Verificator (SFV) format
jacksum -a ed2k -f -F "ed2k://|file|#FILENAME|#FILESIZE|#FINGERPRINT|" *
calculates the edonkey hash of all files in the current directory with a customized output format
jacksum -a ed2k -f -P / -F "<a href=#QUOTEed2k://|file |#FILENAME|#FILESIZE|#FINGERPRINT|#QUOTE>#FILENAME</a>" -r .
calculates the edonkey hash of all files in the current directory and it's subfolders with a customized output format (HTML)
jacksum -a tree:tiger -F "urn:#ALGONAME:#FINGERPRINT" -q hex:
