      Very happy to see the md5 feature; this would be even more helpful if there was a direct command to provide the md5sum for the active file. The typical use case this would elegantly cover would be the situation where the user is confirming information in a file and needs to ensure that he is the right file (which is indexed by an md5 elsewhere).

        if the CertUtil is still part of Windows then a run command shortcut

        cmd /K CertUtil -hashfile  "$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)" MD5
        

        might do it. In addition there is a NppCrypt plugin which also has hash functions.

        Cheers
