/// Digest with SHA-256 demonstrator
///
/// Calculates the MD5 digest for each of the arguments.
///
/// For example:
///
///     dart digest-registry.dart "Hello world!"
///
/// Use a different MD5 calculator to check the results. Note: the "-n"
///
///     md5 -s 'Hello world!'
///
/// Note: this example use Pointy Castle WITH the registry.
