<p>IF you are working with a file that does not end with an empty line, and you are piping the content from <code>tail -F</code> then prefix <code>tail -F</code> with <code>stdbuf -oL</code>.</p>
<p>Otherwise <code>tail -F</code> is NOT going to output the last line from your file. And you could end up with very confusing tailing missing that last event.</p>
