README
# tmux tail -f
This tool allows to tail a set of files in a multi-pane
[tmux](http://tmux.sourceforge.net/) window.
```
$ tmux-tail-f -H
Usage: tmux-tail-f [OPTION]... [FILE]...
Tails the FILEs in a tmux window, one per pane; hitting `^C` in
any one of the panes will terminate all the tail commands and
kill the tmux session. Uses the `-F` option instead of `-f`,
which keeps trying to open a file if it is inaccessible.
Optional arguments:
-d do not kill tmux session upon detach.
-v use the 'even-vertical' layout (default).
-h use the 'even-horizontal' layout.
-t use the 'tiled' layout.
-H print this help.
-U update this script to the latest version.
```
For example
```
tmux-tail-f -h /var/log/httpd/{access,error}_log
```
will show the Apache logs in a tmux window split in two panes.
This tool is heavily inspired by [mtmux](https://github.com/wbond/mtmux).
