-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi-
According to the info manual for 'md5sum', (and 'sha1sum' is presumably similar), If FILE contains a backslash or newline, the line is started with a backslash, and each problematic character in the file name is escaped with a backslash, making the output unambiguous even in the presence of arbitrary file names. If you're getting this same behavior with other control characters then that's more peculiar.
