??? Mine's called Console.app. (Panther) Open it (it's probably in your Utilities subdirectory of Applications). At the left edge, pull the little dimple to the right and you'll see a hierachical list of logs beyond counting. Pick one or more and open windows for them. Let's say console.log and var/log/httpd/error_log. Then go to Preferences and check the boxes under "When an open log is updated...". Put your windows in th Dock or hide Console.app. Make an error, or go to Terminal.app and restart Apache, and watch. Or did you mean something different? - Bruce __bruce__van_allen__santa_cruz__ca__
