I mostly just have a question about the way hashcat interacts with the truecrypt containe in regards to the language used in the dictionary.

For instance, if u create a logical volume, u mostly shouldnt use "§" because its not part of ASCII, u still can but iam not sure how that is than handled since truecrypt gives a message, saying that it could get corrupted after "major" system changes. But if you encrypt your system drive, it will just convert that automatically into "#" withouth any warning, so the boot loader just adjust smoothly withouth much thinking.
But, in case i need to recover my boot system, and i got a series of password-combinations to test, i would need to create the wordlist with the explicit us-layout in mind even when not using an explicit us-layout keyboard and just knowing the password by tipping via muscle memory? right?

it may sound dumb .. but i am somehow really unsure about it? so i probably just ask instead of assuming something which potentially could be false.
to be clear, if its true, i need do i need to type my pw in english layout, or write it in my native layout and just replace the non-ascii parts like § or " for # and @ ... ?


thank u for reading trough it and i surely gonna appreciate if i get an answer on that topic.


best regards!
