The source specification parser in source/mod.rs uses split_once(':') to detect provider prefixes:
if let Some((provider, path)) = spec.split_once(':') {
match provider {
"seclists" => ...,
"aspell" => ...,
"file" => ...,
_ => bail!("Unknown source provider: '{}'", provider),
}
}On Windows, a bare path like C:\wordlists\rockyou.txt would be split into provider C and path \wordlists\rockyou.txt, producing the error "Unknown source provider: 'C'".
The file:path prefix exists as a workaround, but a bare path (which is the most common usage via shaha build C:\words.txt) goes through the positional input arg and then to_string_lossy(), hitting this parser.
A simple fix would be to check if the provider portion is a single ASCII letter before treating it as a provider name, since all actual providers (seclists, aspell, file) are longer than one character.
