; This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
; See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

$oCrypt = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Crypt2")

; Set the name of the hash algorithm.
; Other choices include "sha1", "sha256", "sha384", "sha512", "md2", "md5", and "haval". 
$oCrypt.HashAlgorithm = "md5"

; EncodingMode specifies the encoding of the hash output.
; It may be "hex", "url", "base64", or "quoted-printable".
$oCrypt.EncodingMode = "hex"

; Files of any type may be hashed -- it doesn't matter
; if the file is binary or text...
