Forums Feature Suggestions $read and 'b' flag option

Hello,

I wanna suggest an flag option into the $read identifier that will start reading an file from bottom to up (the opposite of now).

e.g:

$read($mircini,bw,*n0=*)

$read($mircini,b,n1=mirc)

- Thanks!

For large files, this will be slow - likely much slower than a forward search. Operating systems and storage devices are generally good at forward sequential (file/disk) access, and not so much at the reverse. In many scenarios it would probably be faster to use /filter to get all matches and then let your script take the last one. With that said, sure, why not.

$read is slow for large files already :P , i thought about /filter but in some situations it cant be useful.
