Read INSTALL for installation instructions. 

since is a tail(1) with state - it allows the user to 
view only the lines appended to a log file since the last 
time since was used.

To understand how it works run the commands:
  
  make
  echo "First line" >> testlogfile
  ./since testlogfile
  echo "Second line" >> testlogfile
  ./since testlogfile
  rm testlogfile

You might want to set up the following alias:

  alias dosince='since /var/log/messages /var/log/xferlog'

since is released under the terms of the GNU public 
license. Click accept now... errr... sorry... just
look at COPYING.
