From: Amos Date: 2001-07-13T00:16:16+09:00 Subject: [ruby-talk:17727] File.tail? Just curious as to whether anybody has already cooked up a File.tail method, as in the UNIX `tail -f'. The important thing is that it would be nice if it was smart enough to realize when the file has been unusually quiet, reopening the file in such a way that nothing has been lost. Yeah, should be pretty easy to do, but I'm short on time. Actually, seems like this might be useful for the 'ftools' bundle? -- Amos
