+Some files that you download will come with a .sfv file.
+This is used to verify that the files that you received are the same as
+the originals.
+
+cksfv (Check SFV) is a program that can use the .sfv file to verify the
+downloaded files. Also, it can be used to create new .sfv files.
+
+cksfv is a command line tool that uses crc32 checksum to verify file
+integrity. .sfv is simple file verification.
+
+There is a script to integrate this tool with GNOME's Nautilus file manager,
+but since GNOME isn't included in Slackware, it is included as part of the
+documentation instead of in the normal location. You can install it on your
+own or modify the SlackBuild script to do so. It can be found under the
+"./scripts" directory of the source code, and is called CheckSFV in the
+resulting package's documentation directory. All you need to do is to copy
+the "CheckSFV" file to $HOME/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts
