in thread Unable to write to a file opened in read only mode

Actually I have a zip of Unix tools that were ported to windows, Unfortunately it is on my work computer and I don't remember the site I downloaded them from. I will update this with a link ASAP. However it becomes as easy as using the tail command. I am not sure if this will work for you but it is a good source for those of us who only have Windows to see the world.

It seems to work just fine on unix. Unfortunately, there are some issues with using the tail command on NT or unix. Under some circumstances, there is the potential to miss some of the lines being written to the file. Thanks.	[reply]
