@v1cvap0r Targinator currently calls runtime.NumCPU() for parallel processing which defaults to all available CPU threads. Adding an option to allow user-specified CPU threads is an option, but not currently implemented.

Informative write up which gives a different perspective than "the norm". I've also used Waffle's rling since it was publicly released and it has earned a well deserved place in my favorite tools post.

@v1cvap0r duplicut - dedupes a single wordlist without changing its order: ./duplicut wordlist.txt -o dedup_wordlist.txt rling - similar capability to duplicut: ./rling wordlist.txt dedup_wordlist.txt but also can remove dups from multiple files and save the dedup output to file like the example below from the GitHub page: ./rling big-file.txt new-file.txt /path/to/old-file.txt /path/to/others/*
