That's dead simple to add, I just wonder which ones should be added
(since triplicating the whole API wouldn't be fun).  So you're
assuming that hashing is the most common case of the library, right?
Now, having 'hashFile' inside ResourceT isn't terribly useful and if
the user needs it, it's trivial to implement, so I'm thinking of just
exporting a single new function:

  hashFile :: (MonadIO m, Hash ctx d) => FilePath -> m d

I'll include it on the next version. =)

Cheers,
