DESCRIPTION
       Computes	 the  hashes, or message digest, for any number of files while
       optionally recursively digging through the  directory  structure.   Can
       also  take  a  list  of known hashes and display the filenames of input
       files whose hashes either do or do not match any of the	known  hashes.
       Errors are reported to standard error. If no FILES are specified, reads
       from standard input.

       -p <size>
	      Piecewise mode. Breaks files into chunks before hashing.	Chunks
	      may  be  specified using IEC multipliers b, k, m, g, t, p, or e.
	      (Never let it be said that the author didn't plan ahead!)	  This
	      mode cannot be used with the -z mode.

       -i|-I <size>
	      Size  threshold mode. Only hash files smaller than the given the
	      threshold. In -i mode, simply omits those files larger than  the
	      threshold.  In  -I  mode, displays all files, but uses asterisks
	      for the hashes of files larger than the threshold.  Sizes may be
	      specified using IEC multipliers b, k, m, g, t, p, or e.

       -r     Enables recursive mode. All subdirectories are traversed. Please
	      note that recursive mode cannot be used to examine all files  of
	      a	 given	file  extension. For example, calling md5deep -r *.txt
	      will examine all files in directories that end in .txt.

       -e     Displays a progress indicator and estimate of time remaining for
	      each  file being processed. Time estimates for files larger than
	      4GB are not available on Windows. This mode may not be used with
	      th -p mode.

       -m <file>
	      Enables  matching mode. The file given should be a list of known
	      hashes.  The input files are examined one at a  time,  and  only
	      those files that match the list of known hashes are output. This
	      flag may be used more than once to add multiple  sets  of	 known
	      hashes.  Acceptable  formats for lists of known hashes are plain
	      (such as those  generated	 by  md5deep  or  md5sum),  Hashkeeper
	      files, iLook, and the National Software Reference Library (NSRL)
	      as produced by the National Institute for Standards in  Technol‐
	      ogy.
	       If standard input is used with the -m flag, displays "stdin" if
	      the input matches one of the hashes in the list of known hashes.
	      If the hash does not match, the program displays no output.
	       This flag may not be used in conjunction with the -x, -X, or -A
	      flags.  See the section "UNICODE SUPPORT" below.

       -x <file>
	      Same as the -m flag above, but does negative matching. That  is,
	      only those files NOT in the list of known hashes are displayed.
	       This flag may not be used in conjunction with the -m, -M, or -a
	      flags.  See the section "UNICODE SUPPORT" below.

       -M and -X <file>
	      Same as -m and -x above, but displays the	 hash  for  each  file
	      that does (or does not) match the list of known hashes.

       -a <hash>
	      Adds a single hash to the list of known hashes used for matching
	      mode, and if not already enabled, enables matching mode.	Adding
	      single  hashes cannot, by itself, be used to print the hashes of
	      matching files like the -M flag does. When used  in  conjunction
	      with  the	 -w flag, the filename displayed is just the hash sub‐
	      mitted on the command line.
	       This flag may not be used in conjunction with the -x, -X, or -A
	      flags.

       -A <hash>
	      Same as -a above, but does negative matching.  This flag may not
	      be used in conjunction with the -m, -M, or -A flags.

       -f <file>
	      Takes a list of files to be hashed from the specified file. Each
	      line  is	assumed	 to  be a filename. This flag can only be used
	      once per invocation. If it's used	 a  second  time,  the	second
	      instance will clobber the first.
	      Note  that  you  can still use other flags, such as the -m or -x
	      modes, and submit additional FILES on the command line.

       -w     During any of the matching modes (-m,-M,-x,or -X), displays  the
	      filename of the known hash that matched the input file.  See the
	      section "UNICODE SUPPORT" below.

       -t     Display a timestamp in GMT with each  result.  On	 Windows  this
	      timestamp will be the file's creation time. On all other systems
	      it should be the file's change time.

       -n     During any of the matching modes (-m,-M,-x,or -X), displays only
	      the  filenames  of any known hashes that were not matched by any
	      of the input files.

       -s     Enables silent mode. All error messages are supressed.

       -S     Like silent mode, but still displays warnings on improperly for‐
	      matted hashes in the list of known hashes.

       -z     Enables  file size mode. Prepends the hash with a ten digit rep‐
	      resentation of the size of each file processed. If the file size
	      is  greater than 9999999999 bytes (about 9.3GB) the program dis‐
	      plays 9999999999 for the size.

       -q     Quiet mode. File names are omitted from the output. Each hash is
	      still followed by two spaces before the newline.

       -Z     Produces	output	in Triage format. Each line contans the file's
	      size, a tab, a hash of the first 512 bytes, a tab, the  hash  of
	      the  complete  file, a tab, and the file name.  These values are
	      intended in increasing order of specificity. That is, two	 files
	      with  different sizes cannot possibly match. This is a fast com‐
	      parison and should be done first. Next, two files with different
	      partial  hashes cannot possibly match. This is often faster than
	      hashing the whole file. Finally, if those two pieces align, then
	      it's worth reading and hashing the entire file.

       -0     Uses  a  NULL character (/0) to terminate each line instead of a
	      newline.	Useful for processing filenames with  strange  charac‐
	      ters.

       -l     Enables  relative	 file  paths. Instead of printing the absolute
	      path for each file, displays the relative file path as indicated
	      on  the  command	line. This flag may not be used in conjunction
	      with the -b flag.

       -b     Enables bare mode. Strips any leading directory information from
	      displayed	 filenames.   This flag may not be used in conjunction
	      with the -l flag.

       -k     Enables asterisk mode. An asterisk is inserted in lieu of a sec‐
	      ond space between the filename and the hash, just like md5sum in
	      its binary (-b) mode.

       -c     Enables comma separated values output, or CSV  mode.  This  mode
	      has  the	side  effect  of removing the 10 digit size limitation
	      from -z mode.  Also note that asterisks from  -k	mode  are  not
	      displayed when in CSV mode.

       -o <bcpflsd>
	      Enables  expert  mode.  Allows  the user specify which (and only
	      which) types of files are	 processed.  Directory	processing  is
	      still  controlled	 with  the  -r	flag.  The expert mode options
	      allowed are:
	      f - Regular files
	      b - Block Devices
	      c - Character Devices
	      p - Named Pipes
	      l - Symbolic Links
	      s - Sockets
	      d - Solaris Doors
	      e - Windows PE executables

       -jnn   Controls multi-threading. By default the program will create one
	      producer	thread	to scan the file system and one hashing thread
	      per CPU core. Multi-threading causes output filenames to	be  in
	      non-deterministic	 order, as files that take longer to hash will
	      be delayed while they are hashed. If a  deterministic  order  is
	      required, specify -j0 to disable multi-threading

       -d     Output in Digital Forensics XML (DFXML) format.

       -u     Quote  Unicode  output.  For  example,  the  snowman is shown as
	      U+C426.

       -F<bum>
	      Specifies the input mode that is used to read files. The default
	      is -Fb (buffered I/O) which reads files with fopen(). Specifying
	      -Fu will use unbuffered I/O and read the file with open(). Spec‐
	      ifying  -Fm  will	 use memory-mapped I/O which will be faster on
	      some platforms, but which (currently) will not work  with	 files
	      that produce I/O errors.

       -h     Show a help screen and exit.

       -v     Show the version number and exit.

       -V     Show copyright information and exit.

UNICODE SUPPORT
       As  of version 3.0 the program supports Unicode characters in filenames
       on Microsoft Windows systems for filenames  specified  on  the  command
       line  with  globbing (e.g. *), for files specified with the -f of files
       to hash, and for files read from directories using the -r option.

       By default all program input and output should be in UTF-8.   The  pro‐
       gram automatically converts this to UTF-16 for opening files).

       On  Unix/Linux/MacOS,  you should use a terminal emulator that supports
       UTF-8 and UTF-8 characters in filenames will be properly displayed.

       On Windows, the programs do not display Unicode characters on the  con‐
       sole.  You must either redirect output to a file and open the file with
       Wordpad (which can display Unicode), or you must specify the -u	option
       to quote Unicode using standard U+XXXX notation.

       Currently  the  file  name of a file containing known hashes may not be
       specified as a unicode filename, but you can specify the name using tab
       completition  or an asterisk (e.g. md5deep -m *.txt where there is only
       one file with a .txt extension).

RETURN VALUE
       Returns a bit-wise value based on the success of the operation and  the
       status of any matching operations.

       0      Success.	Note that the program considers itself successful even
	      when it encounters read errors,  permission  denied  errors,  or
	      finds directories when not in recursive mode.

       1      Unused  hashes.  Under  any  of the matching modes, returns this
	      value if one or more of the known hashes was not matched by  any
	      of the input files.

       2      Unmatched	 inputs. Under any of the matching modes, returns this
	      value if one or more of the input values did not	match  any  of
	      the known hashes.

       64     User  error,  such  as  trying  to do both positive and negative
	      matching at the same time.

       128    Internal error, such as memory  corruption  or  uncaught	cycle.
	      All internal errors should be reported to the developer! See the
	      section "Reporting Bugs" below.

AUTHOR
       md5deep was written by Jesse Kornblum,  research@jessekornblum.com  and
       Simson Garfinkel.

KNOWN ISSUES
       Using  the -r flag cannot be used to recursively process all files of a
       given extension in a directory. This is a feature, not a bug.   If  you
       need to do this, use the find(1) command.

REPORTING BUGS
       We  take	 all  bug reports very seriously. Any bug that jeopardizes the
       forensic integrity of this program could have serious  consequences  on
       people's lives. When submitting a bug report, please include a descrip‐
       tion of the problem, how you found it, and your contact information.
