Hi, mi name is Desirée Zahradnicek and I'm in the last year of Information Systems Engineering. As a requirement for subject called Free Software I have to make a contribution to a free software project, and I thought about contributing to coreutils. I have a small but useful idea in mind, I'm thinking about adding an option to the program "tail" to make it print the last lines of a file filling the terminal height. I think this could be very useful on its own and more so in combination with watch. I created a really small shell script to emulate the functionality:
#!/bin/bash nlines=$(( $(tput lines) - 2 )) tail -$nlines $1 I'm writing to ask if you think this could be included so I can start to work on it. Thanks in advance, Desirée Zahradnicek
