If you type in something like this: sum -r * and if there are multiple files present in the current directory, you will get output like this for each file it checks: [check_sum] [number_of_blocks] [file_name] If though on the command line you change the "*" to a single file name, the output is the same except that it doesn't print/display the "[file_name]", I guess because that seems redundant because the file name is already known and was typed in on the command line.
Thanks for the report. If you want 'sum' to output the file name, even for one file, then use 'sum --sysv' (or sum -s), although that alters the output to strip leading zeroes and use slightly different spacing:
$ sum a 00000 0 a $ sum -s a 0 0 a Since this feature is already implemented, I'm closing out this bug report. -- Eric Blake address@hidden +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
