=head1 NAME
tac - concatenate and print files in reverse
=head1 SYNOPSIS
B<tac> [-br] [-s separator] [-B] [-S bytes] [file...]
=head1 DESCRIPTION
B<tac> copies files or standard input to standard output with the order of
records reversed.
=head1 OPTIONS
=over
=item -b
Attach separator to the beginning of the record that it precedes in the file.
=item -B
Read files in binary mode.
=item -r
The separator is a regular expression.
=item -s STRING
Use STRING as record separator. Set to C<''> for paragraph mode. Defaults to
newline.
=item -S BYTES
Number of bytes to read at a time. Defaults to 8192.
=back
=head1 NOTES
=over
=item 1
B<-B> and B<-S> are peculiar to this implementation of B<tac>.
=item 2
Regular expressions are as in Perl with some caveats:
=item 3
/foo(bar)/
Do not use capturing parenthesis. They will conflict with B<tac>'s internal use
of them.
=item 4
/foo|bar/
Alternation may match out of sequence, because matches are made against chunks
of files rather than whole files. Set B<-S> to a suitably large number to avoid
this.
