I can check the content of several files in a directory against checksums contained in a file named for example SHA256SUMS with sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS.
Is there an easy way to generate a SHA256SUMS file for all files in a directory?
What is the exact syntax of the SHA256SUMS file and where is the documentation (if any) of that syntax?

Using Bash on Ubuntu. But I hope to get an answer that works on most linuxes. – Gustave – 2015-07-14T12:40:59.977
Solved it now with: sha256sum -b * > SHA256SUMS. Part 2 of question is still open. – Gustave – 2015-07-14T12:41:21.087
See my answer for your part 2. – DavidPostill – 2015-07-14T12:46:30.970
