Raymond Hettinger added the comment:
Overall, I'm +1 on the idea and think the patch looks good. There are two
issues to look at:
1) Neither the md5 or shasum command-line tools offer control over the
blocksize. I suggest that option be dropped from the command-line API giving a
nice simplification and usability improvement.
The stdin option has issues:
$ md5
abc

$ python3.6 -m hashlib md5
abc
