Hi,

I am White-Polar. After using kleopatra for a little while, I have a suggestion: Kleopatra needs a new hash file generation mode.

Kleopatra can generate hashes of selected files and record them to a text file like sha256.txt. The whole process is great, but there is one problem. The text content is hard-coding the file path, causing Kleopatra to report an error once the location of the file or folder is moved (the integrity of the file does not actually change.)

The following is a comparison, the first is the sha256 verification file generated by 7zip, and the second is the sha256 verification file generated by Kleopatra:

Using absolute paths to files is not a wise decision in my opinion. So I suggest that Kleopatra should use relative paths when generating sha256 verification files.
