sha1 on kindle?

Is there any way, built-in or otherwise, to get an sha1 hash? I'm writing a script to interact with dropbox from my kindle, which uses oauth with HMAC-SHA1 ... and that's my main missing piece right now.

MD5 seems to be built in, but not SHA1 (from command line anyhow).

Is there a way to do this through the Kindle's Java API, or does anyone have a kindle-friendly sha1 binary?

/usr/bin/openssl will do it. You'll have to massage the output slightly with sed or awk but just /usr/bin/openssl sha1 yourfilehere will calculate the SHA1 hash of whatever you specify.
