Hi, I have actually had a couple of replies via direct mail that includes
a proggy called xtail and a another that someone else had knocked up.
The reason I asked for a multiple file tailer is that '&'ing tails tend to chew
up system resources on our systems.
We are currently in development/trial/production mode and hence we are keeping
a close eye on errors reported in our application.
If anyone is interested in copies of the said files just drop us line at my
addr. in my sig below.
