Inspired by Paperkey as a means to make hex into something human-friendly so you can convert it back into digital easily.

md5 (32 hex digits) convert into 8 english words, while sha1 (40 hex digits) convert into 10, which ain't bad!

eg:

$ ls | md5sum
52ec5c3ac9cf1f0f75638b11856be430 *-

$ ls | md5sum | hex2lorem
fellowships gamesmanship sexiest cantona interceded metalled madrigalists thickset

$ echo -n "fellowships gamesmanship sexiest cantona interceded metalled madrigalists thickset" | hex2lorem -t
