Feature request in md5sum and sha1sum

[Eric M. Hopper]

In various file sharing systems, and in other places, base32 notation is
become standard.  Partly this is because it is a little more human
friendly because case does not matter and it's shorter than base16. 
This is also partly because the two most commonly used digest formats
are a multiple of 5 bits long.

I request that a feature be added to md5sum and sha1sum to get them to
print out their digests in base32 (0-9[a-vA-V]) format.

Thanks,
