I am looking to concatenate a list of files in a directory in the reverse order that they appear in the list.
This is different from
tac
as tac
will concatenate the files with reversed line order.
Basically I have a folder with 3 files, file1
, file2
and file3
.
cat f* > newfile
will merge these files like so:
file1
file2
file3
However, I want to merge the files like this
file3
file2
file1
whilst maintaining the correct line order.
