[Gambas-user] monitor file for changes

[lasse at ...186...]

Hi,

I know about using "tail -f", but i want to do this using Gambas and display 
is with a GUI frontend and then possibly do some alerting and filtering on 
the contents which is why i wanted to do it using gambas !

Any way of doing it with Gambas. I've been trying to fool around with EOF 
functionality but without much luck.

Regards,

Lasse
