Synopsis: tac [OPTION]... [FILE]... "Records" are separated by instances of a string (newline by default). By default, this separator string is attached to the end of the record that it follows in the file. The program accepts the following options. Also see Note: Common options. `-b' `--before' The separator is attached to the beginning of the record that it precedes in the file. `-r' `--regex' Treat the separator string as a regular expression. Users of `tac' on MS-DOS/MS-Windows should note that, since `tac' reads files in binary mode, each line of a text file might end with a CR/LF pair instead of the Unix-style LF. `-s SEPARATOR' `--separator=SEPARATOR' Use SEPARATOR as the record separator, instead of newline. automatically generated by info2www version 1.2.2.9 |
