|  | #### `tail -f` | ||||||
|  |  | ||||||
|  | `bat` can be combined with `tail -f` to continuously monitor a given file with syntax highlighting. | ||||||
|  | ```bash | ||||||
|  | tail -f /var/log/pacman.log | bat --paging=never -l log | ||||||

|  | explicitly (`-l log`), as it can not be auto-detected in this case. | ||||||
