Found this when I was looking for a text-mode game server browser, ended up making my own, using this and qstat :-)
while true; do clear; ls -l /path/to/the/file; sleep 1; done This, modified with 'more' or whatever, lets you monitor a given file as to it's size, contents, whatever, when 'tail' just won't do ;) There's probably way easier ways to do this, but it worked really well for me, so I thought someone else might find it handy.
