Ah, basic shell programming question :)
How can you 'watch' a file as it is being written to? For example, I want
to have a script watch a log files for certain information and do
something when it sees the information.
Depending on exactly what you mean, `tail -f' might be helpful.

I have newly installed sgml-tools and have used the formatter 'sgml2latex'
successfully except for producing postscript. The error message is
Error: Invalid value 'filename.sgml' for '--papersize'
As an sgml newbie I know not what to do e.g. does the sgmltool.dtd need

The FAT32 patch will be included in Debian 2.0. It's currently
included in the kernel-image-2.0.3
I installed Debian GNU Linux 1.3 revision 6 on a laptop. When I boot
the system, just when LILO is about to load Linux, there seems to be
an 80% - 90% chance that the system will spontaneously reboot. If I
wait a long time, eventually LILO successfully loads Linux without
rebooting.

I noticed that redhat 5.0 'remembers' the full host name of my last
login, while my debian 1.3.1 system gives me only the first 16 characters
