[SOLVED] Sort by the reverse of the words

Issue

How can I sort a list of words

apple
banana
orange
healthy

by the reverse of the words, the result should be

banana
orange
apple
healthy

Solution

Use the rev utility to reverse lines characterwise. Then rev again.

$ cat input.txt | rev | sort | rev
banana
orange
apple
healthy

Edit 1

As pointed out by @dan, the better solution is to do rev input.txt | sort | rev.
