@adi Impressive, I should learn awk at some point.\nFunnily enough, GNU tail has no -r option: https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/manual/html_node/tail-invocation\n> GNU tail can output any amount of data (some other versions of tail cannot). It also has no -r option (print in reverse), since reversing a file is really a different job from printing the end of a file; BSD tail (which is the one with -r) can only reverse files that are at most as large as its buffer, which is typically 32 KiB. A more reliable and versatile way to reverse files is the GNU tac command.

@mckinley Could be better, but this is an awk job. I'm also learning.

@adi @mckinley I'm pretty close to actually generating the pages.

@mckinley Haha @ GNU tail, maybe they're right.

@adi I fully agree with their stance, but it's weird to see an extension present in BSD coreutils but not GNU.
