DFXML Piecewise Hashing

Digital Forensics XML can be used to represent the results of piecewise hashing of individual files. The md5deep suite now generates piecewise hashing results in DFXML when the -d option is provided.

Here is an example:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<md5deep>
<fileobject>
<filename>sample/bar.txt</filename>

<mtime format='time_t'>1296497502.0</mtime>
