basic help needed

[chocolate]

Thanks for helping me

What I wrote it's:

Code:

?l not ?1

, after reading again the wiki I realiced about this (btw, IMO this program should use another letter not L, that in lowcase it's very similar to 1).

But again now I have another two problems:

1) If I don't know the length of the password, do I have to increase manualy from ?1 (1 char) to ?1?1 (2 chars), then to ?1?1?1 (3 chars)..., until I find a match in length and password? or is there a way to set an unkown lenth and use the brute force with this custom charset,i.e from 1 char to 12 ? (I have try -1 --increment-max=12 but with ?1 it stops at 1 char again).

2) the other problem I'm facing it's with this:



Without using a mask this message appears for miliseconds and then dissapear after next autorefresh, I was asking myself how to show it. Now that I've use a mask in the command this stays forever, and progress does not autorefresh, I need to click enter or press s (for status)

How I can show/hide this message? How I can enable autorefresh when using masks without the need of pressing enter or s?

Thanks in advance.
