Xxhash: [Suggestion] Add option to OSX binary to disable "Loading..." text
I need to store a hash in a bash variable outputted from xxhsum.
I seem to get a lot of trailing spaces and sometimes will see the loading text in the variable/printout.
Can you add a option to output nothing while its calculating and ONLY output the final result?

Yep, that's a good point.
The "Loading ..." message is printed into stderr, while the result of xxhsum is sent to stdout.
In most cases, user processes capture stdout, ignoring stderr, so there is no mix up.
But in your case, it seems there is.
Command -q should work properly with version in dev branch now.
It was already working partially (removing the "Loading x" message, but leaving a few trailing spaces). It's also better documented now.
