Yes and no. Cain&Abel has a "calculator" that will ouput various hashes vai it's

It's a small icon that looks like a calculator and opens another
window to have you
input the text and click OK to hash it. This email reminded me of another recent
discussion about having JtR generate hashes to Stdout (iirc). I wanted
to ask how
JtR would do this on salted hashes, would it output all possible
salts, or just some
random single salt, or a handful of salts. I don't want to mix the two
threads but I
think the question can apply here as well as it does in the other
thread. More simply
would the Dummy hash's support salts and how would they likely support them.

Also would Dummy support the, for lack of a better definition, complex
hash types
like Kerbrose TGT (krb5), Mscache, Zip, Rar etc...
