I like the fact that success is printed on (default) standard err, while the progress goes to (default) standard out so that both output may be redirected elsewhere independently.

Howver, the error codes are a bit screwy, and this seems like just the thing you'd want to automate.

   if ($t eq $hash) {
      print STDERR "Found it -> $_\n" 
      exit(0);
   }
}

exit(1);
