"$" character not recognised by the 'm, --method | TYPE' option #204

Description

@Ricky-Tigg

mkpasswd v. 5.6.6

MKPASSWD(1)

 -m TYPE, --method=TYPE
  [...] If TYPE begins and end with $ characters then the string is passed to crypt_gensalt(3) as-is.

note: missing "s" in "end", if meant to be "ends".

$ mkpasswd -m $yescrypt$
Invalid method '$'.

Should be effective.
