problem in Unicode hashes

[epixoip]

hashcat does not only crack ascii hashes, that is false. hashcat does not care one bit about encoding, all it cares about are the bytes. if the password is unicode, then your candidates should also be unicode. ascii in, ascii out. unicode in, unicode out.

Code:
