pw (view data passing through a pipe)
|
|
|
|
pw stands for Pipe Watch, a utility that continuously reads lines
|
|
of text from a pipe or pipe-like source, passes them through a FIFO
|
|
buffer, and maintains a display based on occasionally sampling the
|
|
contents of the FIFO buffer, with useful features such as triggering
|
|
and filtering.
|
|
|
|
pw can monitor anything that produces textual output. tail -f
|
|
/var/logfile, tcpdump, strace, ...
