Scrypt Example Hash Composition
#2
So I think I demonstrate my understanding of the composition of the last two segments below, but I am still stuck attempting to recreate the example hash.

Salt length (20 bytes, b64encoded format) --> ((20 / 4) * 3) - 2 = 13 byte long salt in binary format.
(-2 for the padding bytes '=')
Key length (44 bytes, b64 encoded format) --> ((44/4) * 3) - 1 = 32 byte long key in binary format.
(again -1 for the padding byte '=')

After cracking it in various formats I haven't been able to deduce what the salt is... is it possible that the salt was generated from /dev/urandom and lucky enough to get all non-printable ASCII chars?

I have tried various Outfile formats:
?Is it acceptable to display the results of example Hashes?
   1 = hash[:salt]

   3 = hash[:salt]:plain

   6 = plain:hex_plain

   9 = hash[:salt]:crackpos
