.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.sp
alfsum \fBfile\fP [\fBfile\fP ...]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
\fBalfsum\fP calculates the checksums used by the \fBALF\fP compression
utility on the Atari 8\-bit platform.
.sp
There are no options. Use \fB\-\fP to read from standard input. Use
\fB\&./\-file\fP to read a file whose name begins with \fB\-\fP\&.
.SH NOTES
.sp
The checksum algorithm is very simple: all the bytes in the file are
added together, and the low 16 bits of the result are the checksum.
.SH EXIT STATUS
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B 0
