Dear Managers,

I have about 50 files that have the same name except for some numbers
as: backup_031201.log (the numbers change according to the date).
I want to just look at the last 10 lines of each file. I don't want to
issue the same command 50 times, I just want to give it one command and
get what I want.
I know that tail views the last 10 lines of a file, but when I issue
the command # tail backup_03*.log or # tail backup_03????.log, it
just gives me that last/new file available

Any help???
The system is ES40, 4 CPU, 4 GB mem, running Tru64 UNIX V 5.1B

Mohamed
