expander length limit on cmdline

[gscp]

I'd like to change the min and max length arguments on the command line, e.g.

Code:

./expander.bin min max < infile > outfile

Otherwise I have to recompile it every time I want the expander operates with another length limitation.

this can be done easily by the following commands::

Code:

expander < 1.* > 1_e.out
len [min_length] [max_length] < 1_e.out > 1_e_len.out
sort -u 1_e_len.out -o 1_e_len_u.out

just set the [min_length] [max_length]
1_e_len_u.out << this is your final result.. : )

@M@LIK
Thanks for your suggestion, but it has a little flaw.
If my max_len is greater then the one in #define LEN_MAX it won't work correctly.

If I understand that correctly, this is already done in hashcat-utils v0.6?
Thanks for the patch! This is exactly what I was looking for.

No it does not. The patch was for the beta. Updated the post for 0.5
