Change the apply order of rules? - n1h2 - 07-17-2016

Is there a way to change the way rules are applied to the words? For example, assume I have the following files:

Code:
$ cat words

a

b

c

$ cat rules

$1

$2

$3

Gives me the candidates:

Code:
$ hashcat --stdout hash -r rules words

a1

a2

a3

b1

b2

b3

c1

c2

c3

Is there a way to change the logic so that the words would be applied to the rules, and not the way it is now? This is what I want:

Code:
a1

b1

c1

a2

b2

c2

a3

b3

c3

Or do I have to apply the rules individually, rerunning hashcat each time?

That's not possible, because of the stdin feature. We can not rewind stdin to restart with rule 2.
