Princeprocessor Resume

[royce]

This should work, but I don't immediately see what might be different about your command line that would make the number go backwards. In my scripts that resume princeprocessor, the only thing that I see different is that I don't use the equals sign (so just "-s [number]").

EDIT: Yep - it's definitely the equals sign. Leave that out.

Code:

$ ./pp64.bin --pw-min=15 --pw-max=15 --elem-cnt-min=6 --elem-cnt-max=6 < /usr/share/dict/words >/dev/null ^C $ cat pp.save 1248088626 $ ./pp64.bin --pw-min=15 --pw-max=15 --elem-cnt-min=6 --elem-cnt-max=6 -s `cat pp.save` < /usr/share/dict/words >/dev/null ^C $ cat pp.save 2116886231 $ ./pp64.bin --pw-min=15 --pw-max=15 --elem-cnt-min=6 --elem-cnt-max=6 -s `cat pp.save` < /usr/share/dict/words >/dev/null $ cat pp.save 3107208324 # Now with equals sign $ ./pp64.bin --pw-min=15 --pw-max=15 --elem-cnt-min=6 --elem-cnt-max=6 -s=`cat pp.save` < /usr/share/dict/words >/dev/null ^C $ cat pp.save 419049635 (Note that princeprocessor started over!)
