NAME
       MD5 - Perl interface to the MD5 Message-Digest Algorithm

SYNOPSIS
        use MD5;

        $context = new MD5;
        $context->reset();

        $context->add(LIST);
        $context->addfile(HANDLE);

        $digest = $context->digest();
        $string = $context->hexdigest();

        $digest = MD5->hash(SCALAR);
        $string = MD5->hexhash(SCALAR);

DESCRIPTION
       The "MD5" module is depreciated.  Use "Digest::MD5" instead.

       The current "MD5" module is just a wrapper around the "Digest::MD5" module.  It is pro-
       vided so that legacy code that rely on the old interface still work and get the speed ben-
       efit of the new module.

       In addition to the methods provided for "Digest::MD5" objects, this module provide the
       class methods MD5->hash() and MD5->hexhash() that do the same as the md5() and md5_hex()
       functions provided by "Digest::MD5".
