Hoo WinTail is a useful utility that allows you to view and display files. It can be used to view the end of a growing file.

It is ideal for viewing application traces or server logs in real time, as they are generated. Quickly viewing the last part of a large file without the need to load the entire file.

Hoo WinTail is a file viewer. It makes no changes to the file that is opened. It opens the file in read-only mode. As new lines are written to the file by another program (such as would happen with a log file, for example), Hoo WinTail reads the new lines and displays them.

Hoo WinTail can read and display any text file. It cannot support .doc files, .xls files, or other proprietary formats.
