ruby -r digest/md5 -le "ARGV.each{|f| (print f, ' ',
Digest::MD5.hexdigest(open(f, 'rb').read)) unless File.stat(f).directory? }"

But this will still fail on files which do not have access, like on my
machine (Win XP Pro):

ruby 1.7.3 (2002-11-17) [i386-mswin32]

-e:1:in `initialize': Permission denied - "hiberfil.sys" (Errno::EACCES)
        from -e:1:in `open'
