  1. 新建文件tailf.c文件

    文件内容如下:

     * less -F and tail -f cause a disk access every five seconds.  This  
     * program avoids this problem by waiting for the file size to change.  
     * Hence, the file is not accessed, and the access time does not need to be  
     * flushed back to disk.  This is sort of a "stealth" tail.

  2. 安装

    gcc -Wall -o /usr/bin/tailf tailf.c
    

后续就可以直接使用tailf命令了
