Anyone have a recommendation for a text editor that can tail a file? Trying to watch the activity in a 1.5gb log file and notepad++ nor Notepad can even open it.

Don't need an editor, just the normal tail command in Linux or Mac; or Get-Content command in Windows
tail -f -n 20 xxx.log
get-content -tail 20 -wait xxx.log

vi
works great 🙂 You can run it in WSL or a cygwin install (like MobaXterm)

well, just realised everyones already answered, but just not in a thread.
