Notice

This project is in maintenance mode. Please consider using the new tailon_, which is currently under slow, but steady development. The new version comes with the following improvements:

• Fully self-contained executables. Just download (or build) and run.
• Tiny footprint - the tailon executable sits at 2.5MB in size and uses roughly 10MB of RSS.
• More responsive user-interface.

While some features are missing, it is already usable to a large degree.

Tailon

Tailon is a self-hosted web application for looking at and searching through log files. It is little more than a fancy web wrapper around the following commands::

tail -f
tail -f | grep
tail -f | awk
tail -f | sed
