       F      Scroll  forward,  and  keep trying to read when the
              end of file  is  reached.   Normally  this  command
              would  be used when already at the end of the file.
              It is a way to monitor the tail of a file which  is
              growing while it is being viewed.  (The behavior is
              similar to the "tail -f" command.)
