Chexsum is a type-in program checker for the Commodore 64 and 16, Amstrad CPC 464 and 664, Atari 130XE, and MSX used by Melbourne House Publishers.

It displays a four-digit checksum for each entered line.

It can sometimes see a '.' as a ',' and a ';' as a ':' if they fall on certain positions in a program line.

There are different versions in each book.
