Hoo WinTail is a real-time file viewing Windows utility like the Unix tail -f utility. It can be used to view the end of a growing file. It is ideal for viewing application traces or server logs in real time, as they are generated. Quickly viewing the last part of a large file without the need to load the entire file. It makes no changes to the file that is opened. It opens the file in read-only mode. As new lines are written to the file by another program (such as would happen with a log file, for example), it reads the new lines and displays them. It can read and display any text file. It can capture and display OutputDebugString (Windows Debug API) and TRACE (MS Visual C++ Debug Function) output as well.
