description
crc32 is
a simple utility that calculates the CRC-32 checksum for
each of the given files.
Note that the
CRC-32 checksum is merely used for error detection in
transmission and storage. It is not intended to guard
against the malicious modification of files (i.e., it is not
a cryptographic hash).
This utility is
supplied with the Archive::Zip module for Perl.
see also
Archive::Zip(3pm).
