+.TH READSLOW 1
+.SH NAME
+readslow \- watch a growing file
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B readslow
+[

+]
+[ file ]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.I Readslow
+copies the contents of the
+.I file
+(standard input by default)
+to the standard output.
+Upon reaching an apparent end of file, it
+tries periodically to read further, thus letting
+you watch the progress of a file that another process
+is writing into.
+Option
+.B \-e
+causes readslow to begin at the present end of the
+.I file.
