I want to monitor command output
so i have command like this

1.Run cmd
2.ping 10.1.0.12 -t > “Ping Results.txt”

and i see in total commander that file size is growing

but when i open this file in emeditor
and configure to relaod it didnt work
i have to reopen file

from what i test
Notepad++ also coudnt reload file and didnt prompt any message

could you do something with this
to make it work

Hello,

In the File page of configuration properties, did you select Auto-Reload from the Changed by Another Program drop-down list? If you need to have it reloaded more frequently, you might want to enter a smaller number in the Monitor Interval text box.

Hello,

I reproduced the issue, but I don’t know if Command Prompt output can be monitored in this fashion. Do you know any other text editors that can monitor the output like this?

unfortunately no:/
only tools like tail – http://ophilipp.free.fr/op_tail.htm

i really often use emeditor
and its filtering options
and i wanted to use it to filter logs

sometimes i need to run the process that dont create log file
and writes only on console

so i thought i can redirect it to file
and then filter it in emeditor

notepad++ also have good option to consider
Scroll to the last line after update – that you can check or not

of course its a suggestion
maybe it can be done:)
