tail | Rails - Cloud 66

Runs a Linux tail command on the specified server and given log file. You must specify the log file name including the extension. If you don’t specify a path, or specify a relative path, then we will assume <stack-directory>/current/log (i.e. the subdirectory und $STACK_PATH) as the current directory. You can specify a different (absolute) log path as needed.

This command is only supported on Linux and OS X.
