    usage: tail [-n|c NUMBER] [-f|F] [-s SECONDS] [FILE...]

    Copy last lines from files to stdout. If no files listed, copy from
    stdin. Filename "-" is a synonym for stdin.

    -n	Output the last NUMBER lines (default 10), +X counts from start
    -c	Output the last NUMBER bytes, +NUMBER counts from start
    -f	Follow FILE(s) by descriptor, waiting for more data to be appended
    -F	Follow FILE(s) by filename, waiting for more data, and retrying
    -s	Used with -F, sleep SECONDS between retries (default 1)
