+MultiTail lets you view one or multiple files like the original tail program. 
+The difference is that it creates multiple windows on your console (with 
+ncurses). It can also monitor wildcards: if another file matching the wildcard
+has a more recent modification date, it will automatically switch to that file.
+That way you can, for example, monitor a complete directory of files. Merging 
+of 2 or even more logfiles is possible. It can also use colors while displaying
+the logfiles (through regular expressions), for faster recognition of what is 
+important and what not. It can also filter lines (again with regular 
+expressions). It has interactive menus for editing given regular expressions 
+and deleting and adding windows. One can also have windows with the output of 
+shell scripts and other software. When viewing the output of external software, 
+MultiTail can mimic the functionality of tools like 'watch' and such.
