'i no tail'

This is about a package called 'inotail'.
Tail is a very common command that even basic linux users use.
You might have also seen the tail -f command for tailing the contents of any file continously...and this is very useful for monitoring logs...
But by default tail -f checks the file for updates every one second..whereas inotail uses the inotify property of the kernel to decide if the file needs to be accessed...try this out.

This is supposed to increase system performance for log monitoring purposes.

Command line fun

In Ubuntu,press alt+F2 to get the Run Application window.
Type "free the fish" and enjoy...

Try these if u want a laugh
1)apt-get moo
2)aptitude moo
3)aptitude -vv moo
4)aptitude -vvv moo
5)aptitude -vvvv moo
6)aptitude -vvvvv moo
7)aptitude -vvvvvv moo

Really these guys have no other work it seems..but its nice to see some fun in the otherwise "Why so serious" attitude of CLI....

Enjoy
