also, create aliases in your .bashrc, like so:
alias tailp="tail -f ~/procmaillog"
then type "bash" to save it.
or write a script and bind it to a key combo if your WM supports it,
like so (pekwm keys file):
Chain = "Mod4 n" {
KeyPress = "f" { Actions = "exec ~/bin/filter" }
where filter is:
#!/bin/sh
~/bin/etermlog -n filter_local -e tail -n 50 -f ~/logs/deleted.log "$@"
exit $?
and etermlog is:
#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/bin/Eterm -F drift --bold-font \
drift -g 189x37 --shade 30 "$@"
exit $?
