Usage

crc

Generate CRC32 checksums

crcutil crc -l 'C:\path_to_traverse' -o 'C:\path_to_output.json'

If no -o argument is supplied, then the default output location is:

• Windows

C:\Users\<USERNAME>\Documents\crcutil\

diff

If you hold 2 crc files generated from the same directory and would like to compare the differences.

crcutil diff -l 'C:\crc_1.json' 'C:\crc_2.json' -o 'C:\diff.json'

[!NOTE] This will compare both crc files and output a diff.json in the supplied -o argument.
If no -o argument is supplied, then the default output location is:

• Windows

C:\Users\<USERNAME>\Documents\crcutil\
