Colortail works like the standard tail but it can optionally read a color config file where it's specified expressions that results in colors. It can be used to quickly get an overview of interesting activity by ie. colorize those brightred or some other color of your choose. Examples of the color configuration files are in $PREFIX/share/examples/colortail. XXX patch-aa replaced to work around a bug in this program that assumes non posix/ansi semantics of fgetc(): clearerr() must be used after EOF from fgetc() to read any new data.
