CRC 1
NAME
crc - print the checksum of the file data
SYNOPSIS
crc file ...

\\\$1\ \\$2 ..

20 \\\$1\ # \\$2 ..

EXAMPLES

20 crc *.c # Print checksums of all the C programs

DESCRIPTION

The checksum of each argument is computed and printed, along with the file length and its name, one file per line. This program is useful for seeing if a file transmitted to another machine has arrived correctly. It is conceptually similar to sum, except that it uses a stronger checksum algorithm and also prints the length.
