title: How do I read the last "n" bytes of a file in Java
body: <p>How do I read the last n number of bytes from a file, without using RandomAccessFile.</p>
  
  <p>The last 6 bytes in my files contain crucial information when writing the files back. I need to write my original files, and then append the last 6 bytes elsewhere. </p>
  
  <p>Any guidance? Thanks</p>
