Substitution rule with non-ascii characters

[theNosieKnows]

If those nonascii characters are more than 1 byte when UTF8 encoded, then this will not work currently as the s rule operator only accepts single byte substitutions.

I see, thanks for the prompt response.
I have only limited experience dealing with Hashcat's source code. If one would want to enable byte-to-bytes substitutions, what do you think would be the amount of work required?

Please, use this scale:

1. That's easy.
2. It would take a week.
3. Impossible, you're going to break everything.

Thanks.
