md5sum on download page

Hi I would love to see the md5sum displayed differently to enable easier copy/paste for checking the sums of downloaded files, at the moment I copy the line which reads like this

q4os-2.4-x64.r2.iso ; e838dded8690a419377d58fe25141d5b ; 610271232 Bytes

and then I have to change the order to be like this

e838dded8690a419377d58fe25141d5b q4os-2.4-x64.r2.iso

I always save this to a file named the same as the iso but with the extension .md5sum and check the sum before writing it to my devices using this command

md5sum -c q4os-2.4-x64.r2.iso.md5sum

This is only a very small thing and does not take much effort to correct on my part, but it would be nice (and probably easier for noobs too) if it could be more simply transfered, or maybe even a single file download for the md5sum file like I create for myself.

Like I said it certainly isn't a big thing but something that would save me the occasional face-palm as i realise my mistake.

@Q4OS Team
I hope I'm not being petty, but could we have the legacy download md5sum's displayed the same as the current ones please?
