Hello
I've sent this before but I believe it got lost in the torrent of
patches :)
The patch at
http://andre.people.digirati.com.br/dragonfly/patches/tail.patch
adds support for multiple files with the `-f' flag of tail. This is
mostly useful for checking changes in log files, like
$ tail -f /var/log/messages /var/log/maillog
Patch-taken-from: FreeBSD

Regards,
Andre
