Just came across this post/tutorial on MultiTail:
'MultiTail is a powerful terminal-based utility that allows you to view multiple log files simultaneously in a single terminal window. Think of it as tail -f on steroids.
Instead of opening several terminal tabs or splitting your screen with tmux, MultiTail creates dynamically managed panes inside one terminal session. Each pane can follow a different file, command output, or even network stream.
At its core, MultiTail is designed to:
- Monitor multiple log files at once
- Display them in split windows
- Apply colorization rules
- Merge multiple files into one unified view
- Filter content live
- Follow new files dynamically'
