Elif 0.1.0 Released =================== I've needed it twice now and Martin DeMello also found a use for it, so I have rolled a gem out of my solution to Ruby Quiz #64 to make it easier for people to find and use. What is Elif? ------------- A port of File::ReadBackwards, the Perl module by Uri Guttman, for reading a file in reverse, line by line. This can often be helpful for things like log files, where the interesting information is usually at the end. Where can I learn more? ----------------------- Elif is hosted on RubyForge.
