Can't you teach it to look for the appearance of a new file in the logfile
directory and to pop up for that?
Personally, I can't use Wesley's suggestion because of disk quota restric-
tions. But if you own your own hardware and have the space, that's not a
problem for you.
As I (just) wrote in another followup, the app is pretty simple, it just
outputs 'tail -1f /path/to/logfile' into a window that hides after 30 idle
seconds.
The 'meat-axe' method works just fine for me anyway.
