This Tail plug-in combines the ideas from vimscript#1374 and vimscript#1692 into one plugin offereing both preview and tabed tail functionality. I also added shortcut mapping to "set wrap" and "set number" - which both can be useful when observing log files. Last not least I use the new Vim 7.0 autoload feature so this script should load faster and use less memory then there vimscript#1374 and vimscript#1692. All in all: The best tail plugin you can get.

package	script version	date	Vim version	user	release notes
tail-3.0.vba	3.0	2007-09-17	6.0	Martin Krischik	New features: Startup script: You can now open one or more files for (tabbed) tailing using vim-tail.zsh which is provided in the macros directory. vim-tail.zsh will use a single gvim server and :TabTail to open the files.
tail-2.2.vba	2.2	2007-01-01	7.0	Martin Krischik	Another bug slipped in and needed fixing. Of course the "checktime" problem under windows is not yet fixed.
tail-2.1.vba	2.1	2006-12-31	7.0	Martin Krischik	Some bug fixes. Vimball has been checked and should work Ok now. However, in windows "checktime" does not work and the "pedit!" workaround is problematic when used with tabs and therefore has been commented out. As it is Windows users need to manually reload - or uncomment the "pedit!" workaround and not use tabs.
