# 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`:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ tac README.md
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See `man tac` for more details.
