Is there a SHA-1 verifier for classic Mac OS?

The closest I could find was Checksum Validator on the Garden, but it's for OS X. I downloaded a large file from the Repository because I couldn't find it on the Garden, but its checksum is SHA-1. I have a util called Checksum 1.3 which runs on classic Mac OS, but it can't check SHA-1.

If you don't mind a command-line interface, MacRelix includes the sha1sum command (and similar for MD5 and SHA-256).


The 68K versions of the hash functions were hand-coded in assembly language. 🙂

For some reason, I never realized MacRelix was your project 🙂 Well done on the hand coding!

Awesome, thank you! 😀 I'll try that. I've been thinking about looking for a UNIX-like command environment for classic Mac OS, so that might fill that need.
