This is ;; compatible with the XEmacs version. We expect to have primitive ;; MD5 support in a future version of Emacs. ;; MD5 is defined in RFC 1321. ;;; Code: ;; Not worth customizing? Will go away anyhow with primitive support. (defvar md5-program "md5sum" "Name of a program to calculate MD5 (message digest) checksums. This should read standard input and output the MD5 checksum in the first 32 bytes of standard output. `md5sum' is in GNU Textutils. An alternative is `md5', present in the SSLeay distribution.") ;;;###autoload (defun md5 (object &optional start end encoding noerror) "Return the MD5 message digest (checksum or fingerprint) of OBJECT. OBJECT is a buffer or a atring. Optional arguments START and END specify a region of the object to use, where the first character is 1 for both buffers and strings. Optional argument ENCODING specifies a coding system with which to encode the text for computing the digest. If omitted, the normal rules will be used to find a coding system for output to `md5-program'. It probably makes most sense to use unibyte data and `binary' encoding. Optional argument NOERROR is for XEmacs compatibility and is ignored. In this implementation, the program named by `md5-program' is run to do the calculation. MD5 is defined in RFC 1321."
