You can easilly add new checkboxes in second column since titles are very short. Or maybe even combobox 'Other:'...

I could also live with algorithm checkboxes changed to radio buttons (and one for SFV added together with new ones). It's a nice tradition anyway, to use them when user is supposed to select only one option. ;)

Hi Chris,
I would like to just point out another aspect of the hash checks.
Let's say I calculated the sums for 30,000 files and wanted to compare which ones of those files changed after a certain period of time.
So far so good. I ran the check and eventually it gives me that 47 files have wrong checksums, i.e. they had changed in that period of time.

It is extremely inconvenient to scroll up and down in a list of 30 000 files in order to find out 47 which are colored in red i.e. have failed the check.
I had to mark the whole list, copy into the clipboard, then paste into MS word and order paragraphs alphabetically. Unfortunately that did not work (Word 2010 says - the file is too big or something like that). So I had to save it as a plain text file and then use the good old DOS "sort" filter:
type myhash.md5 |sort >> orderedhash.txt
Eventually I was able to see the files for which the checksum failed in one place.

It could have been much easier if TC offered the option to show me those files only (e.g. by pushing a button and getting them in a separate window)
What do you say about this?
Thanks !

Just saw the new hash options in 8.50 final, thank you very much!
