I want to find out if sum(1) works the same on all UNIX machines for use in generating edit scripts (such as news updates) that first check the target to see if it's the same as was used to generate the edit script. We run 4.1bsd on a VAX and if I do: sum def.h to the sources for 2.7 netnews, I get: 60683 3 If anyone out there on a different machine/system would take the time to run this command and tell me if they get a different answer, I'd appreciate it. - Alan S.
