Hi Olliver, (is it one l or two?)

Is there no #define for this in standard headers?

Why do you need to init it?

How about a usage() function which gives generic help as well?

optionally. But do you mean 'Please supply a valid MAC address with
optional - or : separators?'

separators.

How about putting this code in a separate function:

int process_mac(const char *max)

so you don't have to access argv[1] all the time. Also you can return
1 instead of -1 from main() on error.

How about a nibble_to_hex() function here? This is strange-looking
code. I'm wondering what you are trying to do.

I suggest putting this in a separate variable...

and here: printf("%.2x\n", crc)
