WEP as you think is this, and it is actually a lot harder to crack than most newbs WPA Passwords ( Really WEP. ) because the 2 digit hex what ever is random and really can't mean something as you can't spell much with 1 - 9 and A - F.

You can get all the tools you want it doesn't make you any better though. The tools are there to aid you not do it for you.
Here's WEP: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wired_E...yption_details

Here's WPA:

If you read the WPA one, it says WPA can be both as a hex string, as well as a passphrase.

And the tools are only as good as the user, like aircrack-ng, it takes around 5 commands just to crack one wifi password, if you don't do it right, you don't get the "loot" which is why writing little scripts can come in handy, but each time you use it you have to run airodump-ng to get the mac address then copy and paste it into the areas that need the mac address (like every step)
