*nix users will be familiar with the tail command available on most *nix distros. Is there a similar lightweight util for Windows that does the same thing - ie, so I can just sit a window as lightweight as notepad open, but will update as a log file is continued to be appended to?

Ignore me. Indeed, first search engine result for "tail for windows". This forum needs a feature where threads have a delay time until they appear. |

parabol, great idea, but it also introduces duplicate thread risk when a story appears on news.com.au

parabol, great idea, but it also introduces duplicate thread risk Yesterday's Optus drama showed that many duplicate threads can occur here hours apart. |

easier solution is just to ban raven from starting threads (or posting at all)
