/* tail - copy the end of a file Author: Norbert Schlenker */
|
|
|
|
/* Syntax: tail [-f] [-c number | -n number] [file]
|
|
* tail -[number][c|l][f] [file] (obsolescent)
|
|
* tail +[number][c|l][f] [file] (obsolescent)
|
|
* Flags:
|
|
* -c number Measure starting point in bytes. If number begins
|
|
* with '+', the starting point is relative to the
|
|
* the file's beginning. If number begins with '-'
|
|
* or has no sign, the starting point is relative to
|
|
* the end of the file.
|
|
* -f Keep trying to read after EOF on files and FIFOs.
|
|
* -n number Measure starting point in lines. The number
|
|
* following the flag has significance similar to
|
|
* that described for the -c flag.
|
|
*
|
|
* If neither -c nor -n are specified, the default is tail -n 10.
|
|
*
|
|
* In the obsolescent syntax, an argument with a 'c' following the
|
|
* (optional) number is equivalent to "-c number" in the standard
|
|
* syntax, with number including the leading sign ('+' or '-') of the
|
|
* argument. An argument with 'l' following the number is equivalent
|
|
* to "-n number" in the standard syntax. If the number is not
|
|
* specified, 10 is used as the default. If neither 'c' nor 'l' are
|
|
* specified, 'l' is assumed. The character 'f' may be suffixed to
|
|
* the argument and is equivalent to specifying "-f" in the standard
|
|
* syntax. Look for lines marked "OBSOLESCENT".
|
|
*
|
|
* If no file is specified, standard input is assumed.
|
|
*
|
|
* P1003.2 does not specify tail's behavior when a count of 0 is given.
|
|
* It also does not specify clearly whether the first byte (line) of a
|
|
* file should be numbered 0 or 1. Historical behavior is that the
|
|
* first byte is actually number 1 (contrary to all Unix standards).
|
|
* Historically, a count of 0 (or -0) results in no output whatsoever,
|
|
* while a count of +0 results in the entire file being copied (just like
|
|
* +1). The implementor does not agree with these behaviors, but has
|
|
* copied them slavishly. Look for lines marked "HISTORICAL".

* Notes: Under Minix, this program requires chmem =30000.
