1.Run cmd
2.ping 10.1.0.12 -t > “Ping Results.txt”
and i see in total commander that file size is growing
but when i open this file in emeditor
and configure to relaod it didnt work

Notepad++ also coudnt reload file and didnt prompt any message

Hello,
In the File page of configuration properties, did you select Auto-Reload from the Changed by Another Program drop-down list? If you need to have it reloaded more frequently, you might want to enter a smaller number in the Monitor Interval text box.

Hello,
I reproduced the issue, but I don’t know if Command Prompt output can be monitored in this fashion. Do you know any other text editors that can monitor the output like this?

unfortunately no:/
only tools like tail – http://ophilipp.free.fr/op%5Ftail.htm
i really often use emeditor
and its filtering options
and i wanted to use it to filter logs
sometimes i need to run the process that dont create log file
and writes only on console
so i thought i can redirect it to file
and then filter it in emeditor
notepad++ also have good option to consider
Scroll to the last line after update – that you can check or not
of course its a suggestion
maybe it can be done:)
