Dear all,

It may sounds crazy it may not sound so crazy.

I was here think are there any commands to watch new transactions rolling through the screen like a terminal monitor?

For example, if you want to watch a log file you can execute the command; tail -f <logfile> or watch.
This will keep the log entries rolling and being displayed on screen.

Is there something similar to postgreSQL?

Thank you very much

Best regards

Renato
