Nice tip. You could make this a bit more dynamic by parsing the current date to automatically populate the filename of the current log.
Get-content (${env:ProgramFiles(x86)}+'\BigFix Enterprise\BES Client\__BESData\__Global\Logs\' + (get-date -uformat '%Y%m%d.log')) -tail 4 -wait
Of course assuming the client is using the default paths, otherwise you could probably pull the path from the image path of the service in that scenario.
