Dear All
Is there some command to automatically check whether the two following
strings are equal?

[b]ash can do it easily enough, eg save this as say isequal
#!/bin/sh
if [ "$1" = "$2" ] ; then echo "same" ; else echo "different" ; fi
make sure you
chmod +x isequal
then you can go, eg
./isequal e64829764ecc434be937d92ab3a00f57 e64829764ecc434bg937d92ab3a00f57
You can use the guts of the script from the commandline, even better
if [ "`md5sum $1`" = "`md5sum $2`" ] ; then echo "same" ; else echo
"different" ; fi
