Order of mask generator - steelcroissant - 05-08-2022
Hello!
If I go ahead and, for instance, use ?a?a?a?a (so four digits, just as an example), will the order in which they are completed always be the same or will it differ?
Thanks!

Alright, thanks a bunch!
So now I am faced with another issue; I use the ?a thingie but I would also like to set a minimum size but cannot use --increment due to me needing --skip, is there any way to do that?

do the fast runs with
?a
?a?a
?a?a?a
?a?a?a?a
until you reach a length of the mask where the ETA seems to long and you want to split
use a single line maskfile with the desired masklenght, now you should be able to use skip and limit option (depending on the speed you have to test some values for limit and skip
