And i wanted the 42 one because it's in extras, and 46 is in devel, so i am a bit scared of losing all of my stuff even with the new backup app, that's just my opinion. if You can tell me why should i switch to 46, i'll think of it. Thank again for pointing out the folder of png and desktop file. I kinda knew it... but still..

I captured my home's WPA handshake successfully, but it was draining my battery trying to crack it, so I uploaded it to my quad-core linux desktop to crack it myself, but I realized that I use aircrack-ng with the "-w" to specifiy a wordlist. I suppose my question derives from my ignorance on all of JTR's functions.
Nope, the point of John is so you don't need massive wordlists. Basically John creates wordlists and pipes them through aircrack in real-time. In this case the "-w" option of aircrack is set as "-" to use the stdtout of the John command as the wordlist.
