-h, --help shows help message and exits
-p PRIMARY, --primary PRIMARY path of primary directory f.e. -p "/home/user/dir1" or -p "C:\folder1"
-s SECONDARY, --secondary SECONDARY path of secondary directory f.e. -p "/home/user/dir2" or -p "D:\folder2"
-a, --algorithm set algorithm to CRC32, MD5 or SHA256 (CRC32 by default)
-d, --disable disabled multithreading, when disabled the hashing will be done sequentially, by default they will be done simultaniously
-m, --missing searches for missing files in secondary directory (i.e. present in PRIMARY but not present in SECONDARY)
-n, --nmissing searches for missing files in primary directory (i.e. present in SECONDARY but not present in PRIMARY)
-v, --verbose enables verbose logging, outputs all steps in terminal
-l, --logging enables logging to txt file in logs/ folder
-l, --logging disables logging to txt file in logs/ folder
-c, --custom disables use of -p and -s parameters and allows to set hardcoded directory paths (for jobs that have to be done frequently with the same paths)

# Final notes:
I made Folder Hash Compare because there wasn't a program that suited my needs and worked cross-platform. After backing up a large amount of data to an external source I had some trouble finding a solution to make sure that all files were copied correctly. FHC started as a small script to quickly check folders but I added several functions and options (multithreading, enabling and disabling features) that other solutions didn't provide.
