In my day to day professional life I am always tailing log files but have always been disappointed with the freebies on offer.The current crop of free ones all look like they were written in the 1990s, are very ugly and have limited functionality.

So I have decided to rectify this by creating a more modern version. The mission statement is:

It has to be fast, intuitive, functionally rich and the code has to be 100% reactive.

So here we go, my first attempt I have come up with this

That's better. A tail program which is pleasing to my eyes!

• Drag and drop to tail a file
• Virtual file scrolling
• Highlight new lines
• Side by side monitoring of files
• Auto tail or scroll mode
• Filter lines to match text

• Filter lines on regex
• Find in file
• Conditionally highlight text
• Store recent files and folders
• Don't like green? Choose your own colour
• Automatic creation of columns

• Find in entire folder
• Tail entire folder
