If all you want is print a text file in reverse order, there are much simpler solutions:
In Unix, simply use:
tail -r mylogfile.log
A Perl script offers a more general solution
perl -e 'print reverse <>' mylogfile.log
Much better than a 100+ lines of C++ code!

You're right.
However, it can be compiled, and passed on to somebody else without needing any other interpreter (or the like) to be running on the other computer. It's especially useful for Win32 systems.
You could consider this as an example of using STL streams!
Best,
John

I wrote a utility where I needed just the last
3000 of some "log" files. It was for a Windows
consolole tool, and in that environment you can depend on Unix toos or Perl binaries to be around.
You definitely would like something like this to be available. Although, I used one provided to me by other developer, written in "C", very fast indeed.
