there is a hash tool i liked very much when still using windows, called hashmyfiles http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/hash_my_files.html.
actually it works under wine 2.11 (x32), however, the most interresting feature does not, drag&drop files.
how to get around this issue. is it wine related?
hashmyfiles drag&drop issue
Re: hashmyfiles drag&drop issue
@abraxa
I tested hashmyfiles - it supports drag-n-drop from Wine explorer.
Started with:
You won't be able to do file drag-n-drop with native Linux File Managers.
That is a hard limitation - of the current implementation of Wine.
Surely it would be far easier just to write a little BASH script to replicate the functionality of this utility?
hashmyfiles has a very basic feature set after all!
E.g. find all *.exe files in a subdirectory of current directory and find md5 hash of them...
Who needs janky Windows utilities - when you've got this power under the hood?

Re: hashmyfiles drag&drop issue
now that is interresting, as drag&drop works with nemo and several windows tools. after all, why the difference with hashmyfiles then?
you are right concerning the bash script of course, but droping 2 (or more) files on hmf for a quick visual verification is very fast + practical.

To follow up I had a look at the Wine code for xdnd (X drag-n-drop) today.abraxa wrote:now that is interesting, as drag&drop works with nemo and several windows tools. after all, why the difference with hashmyfiles then?

This patch (hack) allows HashMyFiles.exe to accept natively dropped files from Dolphin:
