Who knows, maybe they went on a journey to learn C# or Python to be able to run the provided code!!!
At least that question led me to add a new feature to FinderOuter to make it possible for users to recover their WIFs missing up to 11 characters at the end.

I believe that wallet recovery tools, especially the ones written in Python, should least have an introductory tutorials/documents/videos about the language. And only the parts that are necessary to use the script or understand how it works. Because we keep telling people to brute-force passwords or a few characters of secret keys, but almost nobody here really knows how to write such a script (that's intuitive and easy to use by newbies, not some hacked-together spaghetti code like the kind I cook up). Heck, even
I'm not sure how I'd go about and write a Python brute-forcer doesn't that isn't insanely slow from bad programming.
We see this frequently with GPU-accelerated private key crackers here. Almost nobody here knows CUDA and OpenCL programming, let alone algorithmic optimizations like bloom filters. And I think that contributes to why people give up on otherwise easy-sounding tasks; they're just too daunting to do alone.
