Print Out Files In Reverse

If you're familiar with cat -- the command you might use to print out a file in the terminal -- then you may appreciate a similar command: tac.

With tac you can

Write each FILE to standard output, last line first.

Notice that tac is cat spelled in reverse. That's what it does with your files, prints them out in reverse.

Give it a try just as you'd use cat:

$ tac README.md

See man tac for more details.
