EDITED: Improved so that comparison can be made
A simple utility which just calculates the MD5sum
It works on a wide variety of Puppies.

On the command line, I use md5deep, from the Debian bundle:

http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/m ... 1_i386.deb

(don't think I've had missing deps with it under 4.31 thru 5.28 - can't say about older, but probably fine).

You can recurse an md5 into a file like this:

Code: Select all

md5deep -rz /mydir > md5list.txt
You end up with the file size, the md5 and the bare file location.

Version 1.3

Forgot to include pinstall.sh file :oops:

New features in this version :lol:


Now you can compare the MD5sum with a value that you
can clip out of a file. Just press button
after the paste.

If they are equal then you get a message of success
