## NAME
       sha224sum - compute and check SHA224 message digest

## SYNOPSIS
       **sha224sum** [_OPTION_]... [_FILE_]...

## DESCRIPTION
       Print or check SHA224 (224-bit) checksums.

       With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input.

### -b --binary
              read in binary mode

### -c --check
              read SHA224 sums from the FILEs and check them

       **--tag**  create a BSD-style checksum

### -t --text
              read in text mode (default)

### -z --zero
              end each output line with NUL, not newline, and disable file name escaping

### The following five options are useful only when verifying checksums:
### --ignore-missing
              don't fail or report status for missing files

### --quiet
              don't print OK for each successfully verified file

### --status
              don't output anything, status code shows success

### --strict
              exit non-zero for improperly formatted checksum lines

### -w --warn
              warn about improperly formatted checksum lines

       **--help** display this help and exit

### --version
              output version information and exit

       The  sums are computed as described in RFC 3874.  When checking, the input should be a former
       output of this program.  The default mode is to print a line with checksum, a space, a  char‐
       acter  indicating input mode ('*' for binary, ' ' for text or where binary is insignificant),
       and name for each FILE.

       Note: There is no difference between binary mode and text mode on GNU systems.
