Subject: RE: Current -fixes GPU formats vs TS

There is a script in the TS that can 'help'.  It is called pw_len_finder.sh

Run it on the input file for the format in question, then add up all lines to the max password allowed.  That is the value that needs to be place into the TS data file for that format.

NOTE, multi byte encoding (utf8) will cause that silly little script to not work right.  Also note, there may be 1 more 'zero' or negative lengths, than there should be. I need to fix the script to ignore the first line, if it is a comment, and does not contain the required field.

Jim.
