[R] tail a file in R

Greetings, not sure tail in R can tail a file as documented here http://rss.acs.unt.edu/Rdoc/library/R.basic/html/tail.html but when I tried my R version 2.14.2 it doesn't work. I need to tail many files to see if appending operations need to be performed on them.. Thanks! Jim. __
