Add hash of file to its name

I found that XY already can compute file's MD5 signature (http://www.xyplorer.com/xyfc/viewtopic. ... 082#p13082).
I'd like to make a script to rename a file to append its hash to its name.
My doubt is if it's possible to get that value from a script, since I haven't found anything on the wiki about it.. (sorry if its in the help file, but I can't open it in Vista :().

If this is impossible to be done directly though scripting, do you know of any way this can be done with XYplorer?

Thanks in advance!

This is strictly about the Help file access issue: Have you looked at the M$ solution link provided in the Issues section of http://www.xyplorer.com/faq.htm?

You will be able to do this in scripting soon. Missing commands:
- ReadFile
- MD5

Whoops, took a while. You'll have it in the next beta.
