Yep. On my list of possible solutions. I need to make sure that whatever checksum I generate can live in an XML file and Craig's function appears to return a binary string. So I think I have to strconv() the hash to turn it into some kind of ASCII. (The consumer of this checksum is a web service written in Python. I need to be sure that we can both recognize any given hash.)
