Hi John, [John Vandenberg] > A broken tail could be handled gracefully with a compatibility shell > script.
True, but at the price of a performance loss. In my case, I prefer to use /usr/xpg4/bin/tail rather than a shell script modifying /usr/bin/tail's arguments on the fly. Of course, if systems exist without a working tail binary, a compatibility shell script would be welcome, but I wouldn't bother before someone actually needs it.
