-- What ----------------------------------------------------------------

Cracker-ng, a multiple file cracker.
For now, there are these modules:
	zip cracker (zip, apm, ipa),
	ccrypt cracker (cpt)

What this tool does _not_:
	1. call a tierce tool like unrar or unzip to check the password
	2. compute permutations or create wordlists (will change)

What this tool does:
	1. understand the data format (see modules/*)
	2. check the password using the way official tool does
	3. eventually use optimized routines
	4. read passwords from STDIN:
		1. john, crunch or whatever you want for bruteforce attacks
		2. cat (or whatever you want) for wordlist attack


-- Man -----------------------------------------------------------------

Usage: cracker-ng 

Examples with ZIP module:
	* wordlist attack:
		cat wordlist.lst | zipcracker-ng file[.zip]
	
	* bruteforce attack:
		john --incremental --stdout | zipcracker-ng file[.zip]
		crunch 1 8 -f charset.lst lalpha | zipcracker-ng file[.zip]


-- Why -----------------------------------------------------------------

I wrote this tool when I saw poor resources we have on *unix for ZIP and
RAR files password cracking. Hope it will be helpful.
