The Jacksum project provides the following User Interfaces:

  • a Command Line Interface (CLI)
  • a Graphical User Interface (GUI) provided by HashGarten
  • an Application Programming Interface (API)
  • Integrations at many file managers

Command Line Interface (CLI)

If you are a skilled command line user you will benefit from the power on the command line and you can use Jacksum in scripts, cronjobs, etc. in order to automate file integration/verification tasks for example.

Graphical User Interface (GUI)

If you prefer a GUI and you just would like to calc and verify hashes with a graphical user interface, I recommend to download and use the Jacksum File Browser Integration (FBI) installer which comes with HashGarten that is a GUI for Jacksum. HashGarten also runs standalone and it supports Drag and Drop.

File Browser Integration (FBI)

The File Browser Integration installers can integrate both Jacksum and HashGarten into your preferred file browser, such as

  • Windows File Explorer (and compatible file managers) on Microsoft Windows
  • Finder on macOS
  • Caja, Dolphin, elementary Files, GNOME Nautilus, Konqueror, Krusader, muCommander, Nemo, ROX-Filter, SpaceFM, Thunar, Xfe, or zzzFM on GNU/Linux
