Hello,

I've seen some discussion about the Perl client tail.pl
So I understand that I can show some text of a file on a display.

I have tried to do this and I have got some questions now:
My display has two lines only (imon). tail.pl displays in the first line a
header message with the filename.
I guess this is achieved by the two lines:
print $remote "widget_add tail title title\n";
print $remote "widget_set tail title {Tail: $filename}\n";

Now I do not want to get this header. If I comment these two lines then I
get an empty first line only showing a # at the line end with a heartbeat.

How to get rid of the header and how to show a meaningful line of the input
file in the first display line?

Also: can the heartbeat get stopped?

Uli
