2. Show five minutes before unixtime from postgresql.log (log is multilines, so we use junk lines setting for skip non-timed lines) ```timedtail -t postgres -n 300 -b 1549800882 -j 10000 /var/log/postgresql/postgresql-9.6-data.log```

3. Show last five seconds from custom.log ```timedtail -r '(\d\d\d\d-\d\d-\d\dT\d\d:\d\d:\d\d)' -n 5 /var/log/my_supper_app.log```
