Outputs hash values in standard Linux utility format ( ). Ignores checksum files (.md5, .sha1, .sha256, .sha384, .sha512) unless explicitly passed. PARAMETERS -FilePath Specifies the path to one or more files to hash. Accepts wildcards (*). -o, -Out, --Out Enables writing checksum results to an auto-named file. - If input has a wildcard (*), outputs to 'checksums.' - If no wildcard is used, outputs to '.' per file. When combined with -r and *, it auto-generates checksum files inside the current working directory and each subdirectory recursively. -f, -OutFile, --OutFile Specifies an explicit output file name to save results to. -r, -Recursive, --Recursive Recursively generate or verify checksums in subdirectories. -c, -Check, --Check Read checksums from the specified file and verify them against files on disk. If -r is used, searches for the specified filename recursively in subdirectories. -m, -Match, --Match Compare the computed hash of the target file(s) against a specific hash string. -a, -Algorithm, --Algorithm Specifies the cryptographic hash algorithm to use. Supported values: SHA1, SHA256 (default), SHA384, SHA512, MD5. If omitted in -c or -m mode, the algorithm is auto-detected by hash length. -h, -Help, --Help Display this help message. EXAMPLES 1. Compute SHA256 checksum for a single file: .\checksum.ps1 myfile.iso 2. Compute checksums for all files and auto-write to files (-o flag): .\checksum.ps1 * -r -o 3. Verify checksums from verification files recursively: .\checksum.ps1 -c checksums.sha256 -r '@ }; function Get-AlgorithmFromHashLength { param([string]$HashString); switch ($HashString.Trim().Length) { 32 { return 'MD5'; } 40 { return 'SHA1'; } 64 { return 'SHA256'; } 96 { return 'SHA384'; } 128 { return 'SHA512'; } default { Write-Error "checksum: Could not auto-detect algorithm for hash length $($HashString.Length).
