Well, both of those read the whole file into memory - tac is sometimes
smarter than that, but that makes for a more complex program. And python
doesn't really do "one-liners" like that, so it doesn't look quite as
nice. But combined with some shell constructs you can do:
python <(echo 'import sys;print("".join(reversed(list(sys.stdin))))')
