> tailDir currently supports tail'ing all file names that match a regex for a given directory. Adding time-stamp support to only tail files created after a given time-period would be nice.
> for eg: Archive folders get data that's added daily and also contain 'n' months old data. There are instances where we only need files that are 'x' days old (x << n)
> sample tailDir call would look something like:
> tailDir("<path>"[,fileregex="*.gz", createdAfter="2010-09-20"]);
