### Piping
157+
158+
In addition to specifying files, you can also pipe directly into `tl`.
159+
This means that you can tail data that comes from another process, and not neccesarily a file.
160+
Here's an example of piping output from the `tree` command in to Toolong:
161+
162+
```bash
163+
tree / | tl
164+
```
