SYNOPSIS

tail [ -c | --bytes ] [ -f | --follow ] [ -n | --lines ] [ --pid ] [ -q | --quiet ] [ -s | --sleep-interval ] [ --max-unchanged-stats ] [ -v | --verbose ] [ -z | --zero-terminated ] [ --use-polling ] [ --retry ] [ -F ] [ -h | --help ] [ -V | --version ] [ files ]

DESCRIPTION

Print the last 10 lines of each FILE to standard output. With more than one FILE, precede each with a header giving the file name. With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input.

Mandatory arguments to long flags are mandatory for short flags too.

OPTIONS

-c , --bytes

Number of bytes to print

-f , --follow

Print the file as it grows

[ possible values: descriptor, name]

-n , --lines

Number of lines to print

--pid = PID

With -f, terminate after process ID, PID dies

-q , --quiet

Never output headers giving file names

-s , --sleep-interval = N

Number of seconds to sleep between polling the file when running with -f

--max-unchanged-stats = N

Reopen a FILE which has not changed size after N (default 5) iterations to see if it has been unlinked or renamed (this is the usual case of rotated log files); This option is meaningful only when polling (i.e., with --use-polling) and when --follow=name

-v , --verbose

Always output headers giving file names

-z , --zero-terminated

Line delimiter is NUL, not newline

--use-polling

Disable 'inotify' support and use polling instead

--retry

Keep trying to open a file if it is inaccessible

-F

Same as --follow=name --retry

-h , --help

Print help

-V , --version

Print version

[ files ]
