Folks,

I seem to recall that there is a way to interactively read logfiles (as they are being generated) from the command line, but I completely forget what utility that is.  A quick reminder, anyone?

(Right now I'm just "less"ing the files after the expected error is
generated.)

(on Gentoo Linux)
