condor_tail displays the last bytes of a file in the sandbox of a running job identified by  the  command
       line  argument  job-ID.  stdout  is  tailed by default. The number of bytes displayed is limited to 1024,
       unless changed by specifying the -maxbytes option. This limit is applied for each individual  tail  of  a
       file; for example, when following a file, the limit is applied each subsequent time output is obtained.

       If you specify filename, that name must be specifically listed in the job's transfer_output_files.

       The exit status of condor_tail is zero on success.
