Description

Provides Python helpers that read the beginning or end of files, similar to the head and tail commands. It helps scripts inspect logs, text files, and recent output without shelling out to external tools.

Developers use it as a library. When reading logs or user files, consider file size, encoding, rotation, and whether output may contain secrets.
