reading the restore file is one possibility, the other one would be (and afaik most "wrappers" choose this way) to use --status --status-automat (see also https://hashcat.net/trac/ticket/406 ).
Btw. also next version of cpu hashcat will ship with the --status-automat feature (see https://hashcat.net/trac/ticket/534 ).
