Issue with --show and colon character

[philsmd]

I think you indeed found the main root of the problem.
The potfile read/write functions should ignore the --outfile-autohex setting.
See https://github.com/hashcat/hashcat/blob/...ile.c#L278

if not, it could lead to problems like you experienced.

I think we should open a github issue and continue the discussion on https://github.com/hashcat/hashcat/issues
