I just tried your "trivial" command. It works, sorta: only after it tails the *entire* file. The problem with that is, some of my XferLog file have *millions* of lines... Kinda hard to quickly check the end of the file that way--unless you want to wait minutes for it to scroll the entire file...

Uncompressed log files work perfectly, of course.
