b, -binary read in binary mode -c, -check read checksums 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 nameĮscaping 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 With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input. Print or check SHA256 (256-bit) checksums. On the website you were downloading from it says to check it like this:

If you don't have the hash value file and just have the expected hash then you can just put the hash in a file with a space then star and the name of the file you're checking, or so it's like the expected output of the sha256sum command. Which indicates that it matched line 2 in the. I used mint_sha256sum.txt as a file of correct hashes to check from like they give for here, it should give outputĢ:50b833f1f093c029bfb7ba6148c9ce96619c01a83e92f35287983fbd62f26b01 On Mac: check=$(shasum -a 256 -b ) check_escaped_space=$(echo $check | sed 's/ / \\/') grep $check_escaped_space mint_sha256sum.txt -n On Linux: check=$(sha256sum -b ) check_escaped_space=$(echo $check | sed 's/ / \\/') grep $check_escaped_space mint_sha256sum.txt -n The true hash of the string 'blah' is the 2nd call. When echoing strings to any of the hash functions like md5 or sha256sum it's generally best to do an echo -n which tells echo to omit appending a newline at the end of the string. This likely failed because when you use echo you introduced an additional character, a newline ( \n) which altered the checksum string. With respect to why this wasn't working for you when you attempted it.

So your only option here is to copy/paste the output from the previous command. (Simply attempting to use grep on a double‐quoted pasted checksum (i.e., as a string) doesn't work.) Q2: I'd like to know the simplest way to do this using a command that does require copy and pasting of the first output's checksum. You have to capture it explicitly if you intend to act on it in any subsequent commands.

Q1: I'd like to know how to do this using a command that does not require copy and pasting of the first output's checksum (if it's possible).īash provides no mechanism to recall any output from the previously run command.
