pkg/DESCR: "xtail watches the growth of files. It's like running a "tail -f" on a bunch of files at once. My favorite usage is: xtail /var/log/* "You can specify both filenames and directories on the command line. If you specify a directory, it watches all the files in that directory. It will notice when new files are created (and start watching them) or when old files are deleted (and stop watching them).
Maybe you'd be interested in PR #5092, i made a small patch to add this functionality to tail(1) some times ago (but it doesn't work with directories iirc) : http://gcu.info/~gaston/openbsd-tail-follow-multiple-files.patch Landry
