Hash format guidance

This is a draft page to experiment with capturing hash-specific format guidance - details or hints that are more complex or more dynamic than available in –hash-info.

For simplicity and future-proofing, start each section title with the mode ID, and sort each section by hash ID.

General guidance

Conversion: Some formats - such as those inside larger containers like archive files, documents, full disk encryption, etc. - have to be extracted / modified / converted before hashcat can attack them. Rather than reinventing the wheel, hashcat often recommends John the Ripper's conversion scripts (the '-2john' files in the JtR distribution). If your conversion script is not listed here, try there.
