Special character salt before or after hash

[RobinHood]

hello fellow hashcats!

I really need some support here.. Hope somebody can give me some useful info about my two questions:

1. what mode should i select for a SHA-1 hash with salt. How do I know if the salt is created $salt $pass or $pass $salt ?

2. the salt is not in hex format. the salt i created like: D7.r!KpeU~34. Can I crack a salt like this or should I somehow decrypt it? make it hex?

im glad for any advice given. thanks!

1. -m 110 or -m 120, try both if you are unsure
2. Salts do not need to be in hex, simply append them to the hashes after a colon like this:  hash:salt

Thank you for this quick answer Chick3nman!
