Combinator

The combinator attack combines the entries from two dictionaries into single-word candidates. Take the following lists as an example:

PS C:\> cat list1.txt
purple

PS C:\> cat list2.txt
monkey
dishwasher

The combinator will produce "purplemonkey" and "purpledishwasher" as candidates. You can also apply a rule to each word on the left- or right-hand side using the options -j and -k. For instance, -j $- and -k $! would produce purple-monkey!.

hashcat.exe -a 1 -m 1000 ntlm.txt list1.txt list2.txt -j $- -k $!

If running in Linux, shells (sh, bash, zsh, fish, etc) will have their own behaviour when the $ character is used on the command line. They may need to be quoted.
