Easiest thing is just open up wifite and look. It's usually in your /usr/bin so:
Code:
 

nano /usr/bin/wifite


The path is here: WPA_DICTIONARY = "PATH TO WORDLIST"

If the WPA/WPA2 handshake has been acquired, it is by design WiFite will exit and not make any attempt to crack the key. This is because the process of cracking the key is intensive and a "battery killer" if it were to be attempted on a Pwn Pad. Instead, it is recommended to copy the associated .cap file to a desktop/laptop then run aircrack-ng against it.
