Hello Konstantin, I wonder if it would be more useful to add '-n, --lines=[+]NUM' that would be similar to tail(1) option and argument. The --follow-new with an option that lists NUM last messages would be --lines=0 That said should --since and --until options similar to journalctl(1) be considered as well? -- Sami Kerola http://www.iki.fi/kerolasa/
