NAME

sha384sum - compute and check SHA384 message digest

SYNOPSIS

sha384sum [,OPTION/]... [,FILE/]...

DESCRIPTION

Print or check SHA384 (384-bit) checksums.

With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input.

-b, --binary: read in binary mode
-c, --check: read SHA384 sums from the FILEs and check them
--tag: create a BSD-style checksum
-t, --text: read in text mode (default)

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

The sums are computed as described in FIPS-180-2. When checking, the input should be a former output of this program. The default mode is to print a line with checksum, a space, a character indicating input mode ('*' for binary, ' ' for text or where binary is insignificant), and name for each FILE.
