# socktailf
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A unix tool to circularly buffer stdin for a local socket.
|
|
|
|
`socktailf` reads incoming lines from stdin into a circular buffer. The circular buffer can be read at any time over a local socket, which is removed when `socktailf` exits. The socket path is printed to stdout at startup.
|
|
|
|
## Usage

```

|
|
