Mac users question

Hey everyone I was just wandering if anyone was a Mac OS X user out there 'cos I got some questions on how to use JTR. P.S This can be for anyone When on JTR it says the wordlist command: –wordlist=FILE –stdin what does stdin mean? And am I putting it in (the cmd)correctly if I write(for example if I stored a hash in a file called pass) –wordlist=pass –stdin ? Thanks SaMTHG:)

Anyone?

well, stdin stands for standard input where data goes into a program and requests data transfers by use of the read operation.

stdin means standard input.

for example, instead of specfying a file name as an argument and the program having to open the file and read it, you can redirect the file contents to standard input by doing this:

program < file
