/live-cat

Primary LanguageRust

Live-cat

This program prints the contents of a file to the standard output, similarly to the cat command on linux. In addition, this program also watches the file and prints the file contents whenever the file changes, effectively providing a live view of the file.

Why?

I made this program to assist in debugging programs that print to a file. (I may never use this myself)
