I’ve always missed have the tail -f command while working on windows machines, and something finally snapped yesterday. I’d seen some tail implementations for windows, but none of them were good enough, so I sat down and pounded out my own version and called it, drumroll please, tail.
Features:
- GUI — no command line needed
- Monitor many files at once
- Customizable filters for flagging files – eg, only flag if error or warning is found
- Visual and audio changes indicate flagged files
- Pause/Restart monitoring, Mute/Unmute sounds, and change the number of lines in real time
- Automatically saves your preferences when closed, including any files currently opened, and re-applies them when opened again
- Free! Open sourced under the GPLv3
- Platform independent — don’t worry linuxers, we won’t tell

Download it. Use it. Love it.
