Perl Module String::CRC32
This packages provides a perl module to generate checksums from strings and from files.
Written 19990310 by Soenke J. Peters <peters__perl@opcenter.de>.
The checksums are the same as those calculated by ZMODEM, PKZIP,
PICCHECK and many others.
There's another perl module called String::CRC which allows to calculate
not only 32 bit CRC numbers, but the generated sums differ from those of
the programs mentioned above.
If you find any bugs, please send me a good description (or a patch ;-) ). Thanks to s0lar(at)gmx.li who sent me a patch to replace PerlIO_getc with PerlIO_read to improve performance.
Have fun,
