No, tr won't do the job of reversing the order of the elements.  It will
change machine.site.domain to machine/site/domain but not to
domain/site/machine.  Sed or perl, though, can do the transposing, as several
of us have already illustrated.  A recursive rcfile could as well, but I like
to avoid those, since they can be a pain to maintain (though I was probably
the first person to post one to this list back around 1994).
