That line produces a lot of effectively duplicate rules, e.g.:
T0 T0 T0 T0 T0 T0 T0 T1
and:
T0 T0 T0 T0 T0 T0 T1 T0
will both be produced by the above ruleset line, but they're effectively
the same.

It should be up to 256.
This will do what you need, also trying to avoid producing duplicates
for non-purely-alphabetical strings:
[List.Rules:Wordlist]
:
-c T0 Q
-c T1 Q T[z0]
-c T2 Q T[z0] T[z1]
-c T3 Q T[z0] T[z1] T[z2]
-c T4 Q T[z0] T[z1] T[z2] T[z3]
-c T5 Q T[z0] T[z1] T[z2] T[z3] T[z4]
-c T6 Q T[z0] T[z1] T[z2] T[z3] T[z4] T[z5]
-c T7 Q T[z0] T[z1] T[z2] T[z3] T[z4] T[z5] T[z6]
Also, there are similar samples in the default john.conf in
[List.Rules:Single] and [List.Rules:NT].
In case you're wondering, Tz is effectively a no-op.
