If anyone's interested in multiple wordlists, it'd be nice to be able to 
have multiple parameters, to be able to say "add a list with filename X, 
weight Y, and format Z".

On the topic of multiple lists, I'm still willing to port it to the latest 
version, but I've gotten really tired of porting it just in time for 
someone else to check a pile of conflicting code into CVS.  This has 
happened three times now, and I'm tired of all the work involved.  So if 
anyone actually wants multi-list code someone will have to coordinate a 
window when nobody else will check stuff in.
