Purpose 
 Converts the
ASCII form of the /etc/qconfig file into the /etc/qconfig.bin file, a binary version of the queue configuration used by the qdaemon command. This command should not be entered on the command
line; it is called by the qdaemon command.
Syntax
 /usr/lib/lpd/digest ASCIIFile BinaryFile
Description
 The digest command accepts an input
file of ASCII characters and
converts it into a binary file. This command is only used by the qdaemon command to translate the /etc/qconfig file into the binary version of
the file, the /etc/qconfig.bin file.
