Subject: IO.popen - continuous output

Hi,

is it possible to get a continuous output stream with IO.popen('xxx')

example,

IO.popen('tail -f some_log_file')...

where the goal is to see the tail output as it's generating, rather than 
waiting for the process to complete to dump the generated output.

Thank You,

Andy Koch
