Filter current wordlists by length of the password - eXPeri3nc3 - 06-10-2013

Hi all! I tried looking around but can't seem to find a command to specifically say like I want to filter out a list of passwords from a large wordlist if it is 8 characters and above (example).

I am not sure if any tools exist out there that can achieve this, I read something before but I lost the page so I can't find it anymore.

How do you guys generate/sort your dictionaries by length? (Not talking about crunch or whatever full character generation of dicts)

Appreciate the comments!

awk 'length > 7' wordlist.txt >new.txt

That did the trick. Thanks!
