Can you tell hashcat to start at a specific word in the wordlist? I've been searching around for a way to do this and can't find anything. The reason I want to do this rather than using --restore option is I want to be able to quit from a cracking session, change the parameters, and resume where I've left off.
For instance I'm currently running this command:
I want to try and replace it with this one to see if my performance improves:
It would be great if I could tell hashcat to start at word xxxxxxxxxxxxx123.
Also, what will happen if I use --restore from my first command? Will it launch the left and right sides of the pipe? Or would I have to put --restore only on the right side? I'm worried if I quit I will lose all my progress.
Thanks for any help. My first post here.

Code:
hashcat64 --stdout -a 6 wlist.txt ?d?d?d | hashcat64 -m 2500 file.hccapx -w 3 --status

Code:
hashcat64 -m 2500 -a 1 -w 3 file.hccapx wlist.txt numbers_3.txt
It would be great if I could tell hashcat to start at word xxxxxxxxxxxxx123.
