source code

Hi,

I do not have a bug to report. I have a question.

Where is the source code for the program "tail".
I cannot find a "tail.c" on Fedora or openSuSE.

(I want to find out how it knows that a file has been
 truncated, for example when using

      # tail -f filename

 Does it use the select() system call?)

Thanks,
-Mike
