I've read already post about saving hashes file on each file hashed:
http://www.amule.org/amule/index.php?topic=1748.0

My problem is similar but worse -- amule crashes and all (!) hashes are gone. I have to rehash even files that are know for years to amule.

So please keep the initial hash file, and temporary hash file, if the temp is closed properly on exit (it is "finished") on next run it will be used as initial. If not, the old initial is used.

Besides that I would really love to see hashes file to be plain text, each file per one line. This way I could control (read) this file using old tools like sed, grep, etc.

No, unless we drop compatibility with eMule. I.e. no.

OTOH if the file is huge now, it would be enourmous as plain text, meaning slower reading/writing it.

Oh, I didn't know of that reason (compatibility).

Anyway, the main wish is of course reliable handling of the file. I think the file rotation would prevent hash loses.
