`tail --lines {{count}} {{path/to/file}}`
|
||||
|

|
||||
|
||||
- Print a specific count of bytes from the end of a given file:

- Print the last lines of a given file and keep reading file until `Ctrl + C`:
|
||||
|
||||
`tail --follow {{path/to/file}}`
|
||||
|
||||

`tail --retry --follow {{path/to/file}}`
|
||||
|
||||
