Have you looked at multitail? http://www.vanheusden.com/multitail/ I use it to watch multiple logs - it have plenty of colourisation options too. -- Cameron Simpson <cs@xxxxxxxxxx> DoD#743 http://www.cskk.ezoshosting.com/cs/ But I have to say, I "non-concur."

IBM seemed to be a breeding ground for making up words and phrases, turning verbs into nouns, etc. "Non-concur" seems to be for those times when saying "I disagree" just isn't strong enough!) - Robert D.
