Long hash from a large file
#1
Question 
Greetings, all! I am trying to recover a password for a large PKZIP file, which consists of folders and pictures inside these folders. I just learnt how to get the hash from John the Ripper, but sadly, the hash file is nearly 5kb, and copying it into cmd is unrealistic. Is there a way that, instead of just pasting the hash into cmd, I could use a txt file with the hash in it? 

Another thing is that I saw an old thread which mentioned that you could split a large file into smaller parts to crack it. But if it is already password-protected, how do you do that? Thank you all!!
