=thanks, but this reveals all of the log files in the directory, without
limiting the view to only those which have changed (very) recently, per
spec.

=see also suggestion of multitail which accomplishes much the same as
the above command but with the ability to display the separate files in
separate windows (or to join them into some combination presentation).
