I'm not exactly sure what you mean, but yes - We could inline
print_digest in file_digest and reuse the 4K buf for the digest as
well. That would shrink the code slightly (lines / bytes) and get rid of
the 2nd xmalloc.
I'll fix that and send a v3 shortly.

Not really, but it's simpler to do like this. It's only once per file so
hardly a performance issue.

ulong is what parse_area_spec and the other memory commands use.

I think it makes more sense to add it when (if?) it is needed.
