Description

MultiTail lets you view one or multiple files like the original tail program. The difference is that it creates multiple windows on your console (with curses). It can also:

* Monitor wildcards: if another file matching the wildcard has a more recent modification date, it will automatically switch to that file. That way you can, for example, monitor a complete directory of files. * Merge 2 or more logfiles. * Use colors while displaying the logfiles (through regular expressions), for faster recognition of what is important and what not. * Filter lines (again with regular expressions) and has interactive menus for editing given regular expressions and deleting and adding windows. * Have windows with the output of shell scripts and other software. When viewing the output of external software, MultiTail can mimic the functionality of tools like 'watch' and such.
