Description

"xtail" watches the growth of files. It's like running a "tail -f" on a bunch of files at once. The syntax is:

xtail name ...

You can specify both filenames and directories on the command line. If you specify a directory, it watches all the files in that directory. It will notice when new files are created (and start watching them) or when old files are deleted (and stop watching them).
