NAME

       fq — job queue log viewer

SYNOPSIS

       fq [-a] [-n] [-q] [job id ...]

DESCRIPTION

       fq is a simple utility for “following” the output of nq(1) jobs.

       Without  arguments,  the  output  of the currently running and queued as-of-now jobs is emitted; else the
       presented job ids are used.

       fq automatically terminates after the corresponding jobs are done.

       The options are as follows:

       -a      Output all log files, even of already finished jobs.

       -n      Don't wait for new output.  Can be used to look at enqueued commands.

       -q      Only print the first line of each job output (i.e. the exec line).

ENVIRONMENT

       NQDIR   Directory where lock files/job output resides, see nq(1).

EXIT STATUS

       The fq utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

INTERNALS

       On Linux, inotify(7) is used to monitor job output.  On other operating systems, polling is used.

SEE ALSO

       nq(1), tq(1)
