perl-file-readbackwards 1.06

Read a file backwards by lines

This module reads a file backwards line by line. It is simple to use, memory efficient and fast. It supports both an object and a tied handle interface.

It is intended for processing log and other similar text files which typically have their newest entries appended to them. By default files are assumed to be plain text and have a line ending appropriate to the OS. But you can set the input record separator string on a per file basis.

Installation

Install perl-file-readbackwards 1.06 as follows:

guix install perl-file-readbackwards@1.06

Or install the latest version:

guix install perl-file-readbackwards

You can also install packages in augmented, pure or containerized environments for development or simply to try them out without polluting your user profile. See the guix shell documentation for more information.
