| Commands for Tail | ||
|---|---|---|
| Command | Args | Detailed Help |
| add | <filename> | Basically does the equivalent of tail -f to the targets. |
| remove | <filename> | Stops announcing the lines appended to <filename>. |
| tail | <command> [<args> ...] | Command dispatcher for the Tail plugin. Use 'list Tail' to see the commands provided by this plugin. Use 'config list plugins.Tail' to see the configuration values for this plugin. In most cases this dispatcher command is unnecessary; in cases where more than one plugin defines a given command, use this command to tell the bot which plugin's command to use. |
| target | [--remove] [<target> ...] | If given no arguments, returns the current list of targets for this plugin. If given any number of targets, will add these targets to the current list of targets. If given --remove and any number of targets, will remove those targets from the current list of targets. |
