Perl revers File handling

Hi Experts,

I have a big text file, so I want read it at eof to upper bound !. after I use a fseek to go SEEK_END, is it possible to step up upperbound?
Best Regards.
Note that I'm used perl script.

Check the File::ReadBackwards module (you have to install it manually, it's not included in the standard distribution).
