Line 3:
In computing, '''eD2k links''' (''ed2k://'') are [[hyperlink]]s used to denote files stored on computers connected to the [[eDonkey network|eDonkey]] [[filesharing]] [[P2P network]].
== General ==
Many programs, such as [[eMule]], [[MLDonkey]] and the original [[eDonkey2000]] client by ''[[MetaMachine]]'', which introduced the link type, as well as others using the eDonkey file sharing protocol, can be used to manage files stored in the filesharing network.
Line 30 ⟶ 31:
This method of hashing allows the recipient to verify that a hash list corresponds to an original eD2k file hash, without the need to actually have the file present on disk.
In the past, there has been some ambiguity for files whose size is a multiple of the chunk size (9500 KiB). Old versions of some eD2k hash tools computed file hashes with an additional 0-byte chunk at the end. This is because an ambiguity of the term ''remainder chunk'' which can be interpreted as either ''the last chunk'' or a ''non-full chunk at the end''. Following the latter interpretation, some implementations added a zero byte chunk in case the last chunk of a file was a complete one. This practice is discouraged however and the first interpretation is used as a standard nowadays to prevent some files from having different hashes depending on the algorithm implementation used to calculate their hash.<ref>{{cite web|url=
