Title: How To Display Show Get Last 10 Lines From A File In Linux Shell Command
Post by: admin on July 03, 2010, 09:57:13 AM

If you have a large file say error log and you want just to see the last 10 lines from you Linux shell just use "tail" command:

Code: [Select]

tail error_log.txt
If you want to display a specific number of lines for example last 15 lines you can do that by adding that number as a parameter like:

Code: [Select]

tail -15 error_log.txt
