request: tool for deleting les than 8 chars from wordlist.
Hello,
I hope the title isn't misleading misleading, but English isn't my native language.I am looking for a tool that can delete all words less then 8 characters from a huge(2 GIG) wordlist. I am not a developer, so i can't build my own.
Is there such a tool around? And if there is, will anyone share?

alternately, man strings
Re: request: tool for deleting les than 8 chars from wordlist.
Like orgcandman mentioned, strings would be sufficient. Goto "man strings" and pay attention to "-n" option. This should put u on the right track.

Didn't Purehate create a script that does this for you?
Of course, if you really wanted to have some fun, go to Wal-Mart late at night and ask the greeter if they could help you find trashbags, roll of carpet, rope, quicklime, clorox and a shovel. See if they give you any strange looks. --Streaker69

there is a tool already called pw-inspector which is part of hydra. An example would be:
cat really_big_list.txt | sort -u | pw-inspector -m 8 -M 63 > wpa_wordlist.txt
sort -u will also remove all the dupes and put it in alphabetical order

No excusue, I really forgot about this thread due to pc issues, really? Really! I got a PM and downloaded a tool called Raptor3, but my machine is not strong enough for this soft, so I splitted the file in pieces and let a certain software, which I don't own, do it's job.

Re: request: tool for deleting les than 8 chars from wordlist.
If you're piping the dictionary file into a cracker program, you could put a little program in the middle that discards words that are less than 8 characters. So instead of:
you'd have:Code:cat dict.txt | cracker
Code:cat dict.txt | awk '{ if ( length($0) >= 8 ) print $0 }' | cracker
