Comment (by hamish):

 Now we are getting somewhere. One little bug:

 {{{
 if [ -n "$TAC" ] ; then
     ## do nothing
 elif type tac ; then
     TAC=tac
 else
     TAC=awk_tac
 fi
 }}}

 `##do nothing` with no command before it is a syntax error. you would need
 to run a noop like "true". but it is better to rewrite the logic of the
 test so that there is no empty case.

 also output of `type tac` would need to be redirected to /dev/null.
