NAME

       parrot_md5 - returns the MD5 checksum of a file, generated on the remote system if possible.

SYNOPSIS

       parrot_md5 <path>

DESCRIPTION

       parrot_md5 returns the MD5 checksum of the file stored at <path>.  If possible it calls a native function
       of the remote system to get the checksum, without requiring the transfer of the file's  contents  to  the
       user's  machine.   If the filesystem does not support the checksum function internally, it is computed by
       the user-level program in the normal fashion.

OPTIONS

       parrot_md5 has no options.

EXIT STATUS

       On success, returns zero.  On failure, returns non-zero.

EXAMPLES

       To retrieve the MD5 checksum of a file stored on a chirp server:

               % parrot_run parrot_md5 /chirp/server.nd.edu/joe/data
                    d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e data
