after playing around with POE::Wheel::FollowTail I wonder how to get the current position inside the read logfile, something like IO::File->getpos().
After reading the source for a while I finally use
my $fh = $follow_tail->[ POE::Wheel::FollowTail::SELF_HANDLE ]; my $pos = sysseek( $fh, 0, SEEK_CUR );
for getting the position and the Seek parameter for setting it.
I noticed Seek and Seek back but nothing to find the current position inside the logfile let's say for saving its state for a _stop event.
