Hello!
When I use the command:
tail -f c:\file.log | sed -n -e "/error/p"
for see if exist some "error" in the last lines of log file c:\file.log
it doesn't work.
If I use
tail -10 c:\file.log | sed -n -e "/error/p"
this work but I'm interested to see if the last line it is with "error" text
and when it is I want to execute an exe file.
How do I do that?
Thanks a lot !

tail -1 c:\file.log | sed -n -e "/error/p", no?

I have duplicated this problem, using bash as the shell and a log file in the current directory (eliminating possible issues with the c:\ dos path). I also ran the test on
a Solaris system. It worked there as expected. With cygwin, it looks like the pipe is running in a buffered mode, because when I killed the 'tail...', I got the expected
output (lines containing the word 'error').
I'm not a developer in the Cygwin project and do not have any ideas about how to make this work. You might find additional information in the FAQ.
