Hi,
I have a script that has to perform a hash over a password.
Problem is that sha512sum expects CTRL-D to be pressed to return to the
command prompt.
I've searched all over Google, but either I didn't use the right search
strings or there is nothing relevant about this.
Bottom line is that I need this command to print the password hash and
returns to the shell automatically:
$ sha512sum | xargs echo "password" | cut -f2 -d' '
Tried:
$ read x; echo "$x" | sha512sum | xargs echo "password" | cut -f2 -d' '
but no good and as a bonus (NOT) the hash is incorrect.
Any help would be appreciated.
Warm Regards,
Mário Gamito
