[ProAudio] MD5 programs for Mac OS 10.15 and later on M1

[Bob Katz]

The problem is a simple MD5 generating command is just a generator. It's 
not a verifier. It's also not a system for gathering groups of MD5s, 
delivering them and evaluating them. A good MD5 program will create a 
single text file with a list of the files that have been checked, and 
also read that file and check it against the MD5s of files after they 
have been transferred or copied, to ensure they have not gotten altered 
or corrupted.
