Insert Hash

A very useful feature to add to this woftware would be the hability to place file's hash anywhere in its name.

A preview of non-calculated hash (like all Fs) could be shown to avoid wasting time calculating undesired hashes.

So it would be an insert option that adds the hash; including separation, prefix and suffix. In fact, the add option has enought space to fit it:

Any algorithym that returns a short string would be a must: CRC32, Adler-32... and others like MD5 or SHA1 are also an option to be added there.

Hi, this would be a good function! What is the use case for this, that is, a real life example of its use? thanks!

Just to note, that if you don't need the hash in the file name itself, there are any number of utilities that can be used for Simple file verification.

Also, you might be able to handle the hash insertion using BRU's Rename-Pairs... feature.
