Hi all, 
 
I'm pretty new to Gambas and it's been a while since i've done any real 
coding. 
 
I'm trying to get back into coding by jumping on a (for me) large project that 
will work a bit like 3cDaemon for windows (a TFTP,Syslog and ftp server for 
windows), although using the built in tools in linux. 
 
I'm trying to build a "tail -f" functionality into a textbox. Which will write 
out the last lines in a file being monitored. 
 
Do anyone have a hint as to how this could be done ? 
 
At the same time. do anyone have a quick way of finding and replacing a 
specific line in a file (configuration file) ?? 
 
Thanks in advance, 
 
Lasse 
 
PS: Gambas looks pretty cool. Now i just need to relearn old skills :-)
