Usage: /usr/bin/sha224sum [OPTION]... [FILE]...
Print or check SHA224 checksums.
Legacy interface to the cksum(1) utility.
With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input.
Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.
-b, --binary
read in binary mode
-c, --check
read checksums from the FILEs and check them
--tag
create a BSD-style checksum
-t, --text
read in text mode (default)
-z, --zero
end each output line with NUL, not newline,
and disable file name escaping
The following five options are useful only when verifying checksums:
--ignore-missing
don't fail or report status for missing files
--quiet
don't print OK for each successfully verified file
--status
don't output anything, status code shows success
--strict
exit non-zero for improperly formatted checksum lines
-w, --warn
warn about improperly formatted checksum lines
--help
display this help and exit
--version
output version information and exit
When checking, the input should be a former output of this program,
or equivalent standalone program.
