MD5shot is a utility to quickly get the md5 hash of a string or file without a trip to the terminal. Also does file and string comparison and file integrity checking.
MD5shot offers quick reference for MD5 hashes.

MD5shot is a front-end to the MD5 hashing utility. But in version 2, there's much more than that. In addition to getting the hash (unique identifier) of a file or string (for example, you can paste in the text to Hamlet), you can compare strings or files to determine whether their contents are the same, and even run a file integrity check by comparing a file's hash to the hash of a known good file. Finally, you can select text or a file, and use the MD5shot service to get the hash of it. Unlike before, it's finally working.

What's New:
Functionally identical to 2.0, except it's a Universal Application now (hopefully, hence the b1).
