Thanks. Does this mean it will download and build JtR 1.8.0, or do you intend to include prebuilt binaries in the tarball (the "distro", like Cygwin has)? > todo items: > > 1. signed .zip and .tar.gz of a statically linked john plus ntctty plus > ptycon, allowing users to run jtr in either a pty-based (midipix) or a > pipe-based (cygwin,msys) terminal, as well as inside of the native > console window (possibly invoked from within cmd.exe or powershell). > > 2.

Yes, jumbo is likely much harder to get working, but it is also more important for the community, given how much more functionality jumbo provides. Luckily, it already has its x86-64.S made Win64-aware, so at least you shouldn't run into that problem there. Also, since performance matters a lot for JtR, it is important to link it against musl and OpenSSL built with compiler optimizations enabled. (You said you use -O0 for libraries for now.) Thanks again, Alexander
