class="">Hi!<br>
<br>
My name is Filipe Marques, I wish to ask you to please
spare me a few minutes to read this letter and consider
its contents.<br>
<br>
I use</span> Manjaro <span class="">GNU</span><span
class="">/</span><span class="">Linux</span> <span
class="">for some time</span> <span class="">and I am</span>
<span class="">really enjoying</span> <span class="">the
simplicity</span><span>, ease</span> <span class="">of
use</span> <span class="">and being</span> <span
class="">user friendly</span><span>.</span><br>
<span class="">I also like the</span> <span class="">philosophy</span>
<span class="">of</span> <span class="">rolling release</span>
<span class="">model</span><span>,</span> <span class="">to
be</span> <span class="">100</span><span>% compatible</span>
<span class="">and</span> <span class="">based</span> <span
class="">on</span> <span class="">ArchLinux</span> <span
class="">and</span> <span class="">management</span> <span
class="">software</span> <span class="">packages</span> <span
class="">pacman</span> <span class="">and</span> <span
class="">yaourt</span><span>.</span><br>
<br>
<span class="">The</span> <span class="">Manjaro</span> <span
class="">GNU</span><span class="">/</span><span class="">Linux</span>
<span class="">is not</span> <span class="">my first time</span>
<span class="">on the</span> <span class="">use of</span> <span
class="">GNU</span><span class="">/</span><span class="">Linux
distros</span><span>.</span> I <span class="">started</span>
<span class="">by using Ubuntu</span> <span class="">in
2011</span> <span class="">and then</span> <span
class="">used</span> <span class="">Linux Mint</span> <span
class="">Debian</span> <span class="">Edition</span><span>,</span>
<span class="">Debian</span><span>,</span> <span class="">openSUSE</span><span>,
the latter</span><span>, I</span> <span class="">still</span><span
class=""></span><span></span><span></span> <span class="">use</span><span>.</span><br>
<span class="">I was tired</span> <span class="">to
reinstall</span> <span class="">Ubuntu versions</span> <span
class="">to have</span> <span class="">a system</span> <span
class="">and updated</span> <span class="">packages</span>
<span class="">and even</span> <span class="">using</span>
<span class="">Linux</span> <span class="">Mint</span> <span
class="">Debian</span> <span class="">Edition with</span>
<span class="">semi</span><span class="">-</span><span>rolling</span>
<span class="">release</span> <span class="">model</span> <span
class="">does not convince</span> <span class="">me</span><span>.</span><br>
<span class="">It seemed</span> <span class="">unfair not
to</span> <span class="">try other</span> <span class="">GNU</span><span
class="">/</span><span class="">Linux</span> <span
class="">distributions</span> <span class="">such as</span>
<span class="">Arch Linux</span><span>, so</span> <span
class="">I researched</span> <span class="">and found</span>
<span class="">Manjaro</span> <span class="">GNU</span><span
class="">/</span><span class="">Linux</span> <span
class="">and</span> <span class="">I downloaded</span> <span
class="">the</span> <span class="">official version of</span>
<span class="">Xfce</span> <span class="">and I love</span>
<span class="">this version</span><span>.</span><br>
<span class="">When I was</span> <span class="">installing</span><span>,</span>
<span class="">I was reading</span> <span class="">the</span>
<span class="">user</span> <span class="">guide</span> <span
class="">and noticed that</span> <span class="">the</span>
<span class="">part of</span> <span class="">the program</span>
<span class="">using</span> <span class="">the</span> <span
class="">GNU</span> <span class="">Coreutils</span> <span
class="">sha1sum</span> <span class="">to</span> <span
class="">verify</span> <span class="">hashes</span><span>,</span>
<span class="">there is no</span> <span class="">GUI</span>
<span class="">program</span> <span class="">for this
purpose</span><span>, and a</span> <span class="">user
using</span> <span class="">the first time a</span> <span
class="">GNU</span><span class="">/</span><span class="">Linux</span>
<span class="">distribution and</span> <span class="">also
the</span> <span class="">command line is</span> <span
class="">bit</span> <span class="">scary!</span><br>
<br>
<span class="">As I am a</span> <span class="">developer</span>
<span class="">and</span> <span class="">also</span> <span
class="">a web developer</span><span>, I made a</span> <span
class="">GUI</span> <span class="">wrapper</span> <span
class="">for</span> <span class="">GNU</span> <span
class=""></span><span class="">Coreutils sha1sum</span> <span
class="">to make</span> <span class="">the operation</span>
<span class="">of comparing</span> <span class="">hashes</span>
<span class="">of</span> <span class="">isos</span> <span
class="">and</span> <span class="">txt</span> <span
class="">files</span> <span class="">easier</span><span>.</span><br>
<span class="">The</span> <span class="">program is called</span> <span
class=""></span><span class="">Check</span> Hash <span
class="">and</span> <span class="">the project</span> <span
class="">is licensed under the</span> <span class="">GNU</span>
<span class="">GPL</span> <span class="">v</span><span>.</span>
<span class="">3 and</span> <span class="">is on the
website</span><span>:</span><br>
<span><a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://filipe-marques.github.io/check-hash/">http://filipe-marques.github.io/check-hash/</a></span><br>
<span class="">and</span> <span class="">the program</span>
<span class="">was developed</span> <span class="">with the
principle</span> <span class="">(KISS</span><span>)</span><span>.</span><br>
<span class=""><br>
So</span><span>, I</span> <span class="">ask you to</span>
<span class="">test this program</span> <span class="">and</span>
<span class="">accept it</span> in<span class=""></span> <span
class="">official</span> <span class="">versions of
Manjaro</span> <span class="">GNU</span><span class="">/</span><span
class="">Linux</span><span>, as well as</span> <span
class="">in the</span> <span class="">user guide.</span><br>
<span class="">In this project</span> <span class="">you
only need to</span> <span class="">edit</span> <span
class="">in the</span> <span class="">source code,</span>
<span class="">the folder path</span> <span class="">to
start looking for</span> <span class="">the text file</span><span>.</span><br>
<br>
<span class="">I want the</span> <span class="">Manjaro</span>
<span class="">GNU</span><span class="">/</span><span
class="">Linux</span> <span class="">pass</span> <span
class="">the</span> <span class="">beta</span> <span
class="">phase and</span> <span class="">be </span><span
class="">released</span><span>.</span><br>
