       tail logfile

    Prints the last ten lines of the file "logfile".

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------

       tail +3c logfile

    Skips the first three characters of "logfile" and prints the rest of the
    file on the standard output.




    ----------------------------------------------------------------------

       tail +0f /usr/spool/uucp/logfile

    Prints the entire file "/usr/spool/uucp/logfile" on the standard output and
    monitors the growth of the file by sending the material that is appended to
    the file to standard output.  You must strike the break key when the 
    process ends or \S tail \S will continue to wait for more input.
