When the topic of Less came up in the 10AM training class, I raised the
question of if Less would append data to a "live" file being viewed. The
answer is Yes. When you open a log file for a running process with less,
the new data will be added to the existing less session whenever a
command is issued to less by the user.
Think tail -f with the ability to search like vi.
