Show checksum method when verifying

Post by *miskox »

After selecting 'Verify Checksums (from checksum files) it shows

Code: Select all

xx % CRC
It would be great to show the checksum method used. For example:

Code: Select all

xx % blake3
or

Code: Select all

xx % CRC32
I know that all these checksums are really CRCs but...

Thanks.

They are hashes, not CRC.

Total Commander 11.50 beta already shows the method in the title bar as soon as the calculation has started.
When you verify a checksum from the clipboard, it even shows when you use 2 or 3 methods at the same time, and changes it to the method which returned the correct checksum when done.

2ghisler: Thanks. I must admit that I didn't check this with the latest 11.50 version.
