progpick

Bruteforce with a stream of permutations of a specific pattern.

In case you tend to forget your LUKS password as well.

Examples

# This is going to allocate 3GB
bash -c 'for x in {a..z}{a..z}{a..z}{a..z}{a..z}; do echo $x; done'
# this is not
progpick '{a..z}{a..z}{a..z}{a..z}{a..z}'

# regular expression
[a-z]{2-4}[0-9]{2}
# progpick pattern
progpick '{{a..z},}{{a..z},}{a..z}{a..z}{0..9}{0..9}'

# Run a script for each result
progpick 'a{b,c{d,e{f,g}}}' | while read -r x; do
    ./script "$x"
done

TODO

• implement some of the flags in main.rs
• add progress bar
• estimate remaining time
