     sumdir(1)                                               sumdir(1)



     NAME
          sumdir - sum and count characters in the files in the given
          directories

     SYNOPSIS
          sumdir [directories]

     DESCRIPTION
          sumdir calculates and prints a 16-bit checksum for the named
          file, and also prints the number of characters in the file.
          It is typically used to look for bad spots on the file
          system, or to validate a file transmitted over some
          transmission line.  The output from this program differs
          from the output from the sum(1) program in that sumdir
          prints the number of characters rather than the number of
          blocks in the file.

          sumdir provides a recursive checksum of all files in the
          specified directory.

     EXAMPLE
               sumdir man1

          produces the checksum and the character count of the files
          in the directory man1.
