Hi, define the amount of lines your will show. i.e. 25 lines. First I'd open the log file with mode 'r+'. Second, loop through the file an get every line with readline into the array, but after 25 lines, delete the first line with array.pop(i). Remember the last position. Third after the loop ended join the array and put into the textview. For refresh create a button or use a timer, which start at the end of the file and loops through till the end again. Little complicated, but I don't now a function like tail in python.
