A simple script for searching the password for T5577. The script creates a
dictionary starting from the entered starting year to the entered ending year.
There are two search methods - DDMMYYYY or YYYYMMDD. Checking the entire year
takes about 1 minute and 50 seconds. Date from 1900 to 2100. The script may be
useful if the password is, for example, a date of birth.

Usage:
script run t55_chk [-s start_year] [-e end_year] [-d | -y]

Options:
-h                    Show this help message
-s                    Starting year (required)
-e                    Ending year (default: current year)
-d                    Search method: DDMMYYYY
-y                    Search method: YYYYMMDD

Examples:
script run t55_chk -s 1999 -d             - start from 1999, end year is current year, method 01011999
script run t55_chk -s 1999 -y             - start from 1999, end year is current year, method 19990101
script run t55_chk -s 1999 -e 2001 -y     - start from 1999, end year 2001, method 19990101
