- Concatenate specific files in reversed order:

`tac {{path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...}}`

- Display `stdin` in reversed order:

`{{cat path/to/file}} | tac`

- Use a specific separator:

`tac {{[-s|--separator]}} {{separator}} {{path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...}}`

- Use a specific regex as a separator:

`tac {{[-r|--regex]}} {{[-s|--separator]}} {{separator}} {{path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...}}`

- Use a separator before each file:

`tac {{[-b|--before]}} {{path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...}}`
