chr files, and external modes on already known or artificial passwords, as well as for testing of future and modified versions of John itself. A "dummy" "format" is now supported (plaintext passwords encoded in hexadecimal and prefixed with "$dummy$") – for faster testing and tuning of custom wordlists, rule sets.New make targets: linux-x86-64-avx, linux-x86-64-xop, linux-x86-avx, and linux-x86-xop (these require recent versions of GCC and GNU binutils). Added Intel AVX and AMD XOP instruction sets support for bitslice DES (with C compiler intrinsics).This is the change log for JtR version 1.7.7: It supports several crypt(3) password hash types commonly found on Unix systems, as well as Windows LM hashes."
