Display the last x lines. Defaults to 10 lines.

-f=minusminus Information delimited by newline and ----------------------
-h|?|help
Display help
-w|watch
Use file system watcher to watch file
-m|monitor=seconds
Use polling to check for changes of the file.
For instance to :
LogTail.exe -f=logfile.xml
LogTail.exe -file=logfile.xml
If you are in powershell (or cygwin) you can do the following:
cat yourlogfile.xml | LogTail.exe
