Interesting thread on removing the newline character of an exist-
ing file (which contains only one line with 32 chars).  [0]

The (though cryptic) solution in the thread:

     :|dd of=file.md5 bs=32 seek=1


Update 2020-12-10:

Today I'd probably use (although not POSIX compliant):

     truncate -cs '<32' file.md5
