If you have any followup questions feel free to ask. I just realized that this really isn't very clear. Essentially the idea is you are modifying the bitmap from the previous render each time you blast a new line in. The bitmap will remain the same size, but you do a block-copy to shift the elements up. Then you draw into the bitmap for the new line, then the on-screen update is just one draw of the entire bitmap. Whenever the user resizes the window, you throw the bitmap away (well, not really,...

It seems that this error is still not corrected. That is a pity. I could use this program very much. (OS: Win10 Pro, 64-bit)

Doesn't work on SMall files

Hi, we have checked Wintail and we do not find any issue tailing very small files. If the mentioned problem is still persisting, please create a new ticket adding attachments and the more useful information in order to analyze, investigate and hopeful fix it. Thanks anyway for your notification.

Hi, Sorry about late reply - I have been away on holiday. This was such a long time ago I can't remember if any changes have been made. I have downloaded the latest version (2.3.0.1) and tried to follow a file with highlighting enabled. The highlighting seems to work now but I have noticed that it has problems updating due to in this case Apache apparently locking the file and causing Tail to display an error: [cid:image001.png@01D48657.6619F180] Perhaps this should be registered in a separate ticket?...

Sounds good. If you'd like me to contribute to the development let me know. Would you consider putting the code on github or similar collaboration site? I need a tool like this and yours is the best I've found so far. I'd would save a lot of time if I could work with it rather than starting from scratch. Your tool covers basic tailing, and the highlighting is very useful. For the most part is has been reliable and robust -- except when the log file is being written quickly. The features I'm interested...

Hi Jim and thanks for you submission. The point is that normally log files are meant to grow up line after line and the purpose of WinTail is to allow users to monitor these log files in order to catch possible warning or errors reported by the apps that populate those log files. If you're facing special apps that overwrite completely the log file or the log file could decrease it's number of written rows, of course this is a problem. I will not forget your considerations and this ticket, thinking...

Hi. The app is written with VS 2017 Pro C# and .NET 4.6 This is the official WinTail website that I keep up to date beside every new release: http://www.tailforwindows.net/ The old domain http://www.tailforwindows.org has been closed.

Thanks for fixing both issues. This is the best windows tail tool that I've found. But, it has significant room for improvement. Is the source code available?

Hi. For the moment only one instance of WinTail can be opened but if you need to monitor more than one file, you can do it.

Hi, I'm sorry but the line length is greater than the WinTail windows width, at the moment there is no way to show the entire line. I could anyway evaluate the possiblity to add an extra settings parameter to enable or disable a sort of Word Wrapping that would split the lines in order to show the whole text.

Hi. Can you pleae tell me under what OS did you run the 2.2.4.3, .NET version etc... I'm sorry to write you back so late, but it would be good if you could give me the more detailed information you have in order to understand the reason for that exception.

Hi. The option to disable the software update version is not implemented yet. I will add an extra parameter in the application settings in order to enable or disable software update checks. For the exception you mentioned to me, it seems that the input log file (that looks like a web server log file), it's maybe locked by another process. I'll investigate anyway in the code in order to find out a solution for that, ok? Stay in touch. I'll give you feedback regarding your issue with this ticket. ...

In the meantime I suggest you to download the latest version of WinTail 2.2.4.3 because the source code has been reviewed. I suggest you to have a look at the release notes for the new version because maybe it solves the issue you told me.
