Hello everyone,


I wonder if is possible to read data from a certain file without using a pipe.

Let me explain:

I have a process already writing messages to a logfile. I want to read
all written data (without neither stop nor interfere normal log
process) from another process in real time.

How can I achieve it ?


thanks
