Thanks, Bernd! I tested md5, sha-1, and sha-256 -- I get the same
answers as on Linux. :-)

I posted a news item about it on the FreeDOS website. I was going to
mirror this release to the FreeDOS Files Archive at ibiblio, but I
don't know how to get files out of a Fossil archive. (I have never
used Fossil before.) I downloaded a copy of Fossil from the website,
and I read the wiki, but I can't figure out how to export files. Can
you share a command to do that? Then I can make a zip copy to share on
ibiblio.
