Less is better, than tail
Raw
gistfile1.sh
$ less +F log/production.log
# less +F works exactly like tail -f, with more:
#
# Simply press ctrl+c to switch to editing model, so you can scroll backward and using any more/vi command, such as /pattern to search
# Press shift+f again to switch back to tail model
# Anyway, just run man less to find some more information.
