Monitor lists of files or command output
Package to keep track of a list of specified files or the output of specified commands. The principal variable to modify is analog-entry-list, which should be set to a list of entries. This can be modified with: M-x customize-variable RET analog-entry-list RET Each element of analog-entry-list is a list where the car is a file (or command) and the cdr is an association list of properties. By default, entries are files, but commands can also be specified. Each entry can have a list of attributes describing whether the head or the tail of the output is wanted, how many lines should be kept, a list of regexps to keep or flush etc. Entries can be collected into named groups.
