Earlier I posted some code with the subject "gtk_input_add - code". If you use
the 'tail -f...' snippet in it, it will do what you want. I tried it before I
went to my socket (because I wanted it to work remotely where the filesystem
may not be visible), but when I had it working there wasn't any latency.

Let me know if that posting didn;t make it to you, and I'll email a copy.
