I want a tool that offers tail-like functionality for large files. (which are in a remote server and mounted on my system, for what that matters).

I am aware of glogg but I am having issues with auto reload on Ubuntu 16.04.01 as I describe here.

Incorporation of custom coloring schemes is also needed.

I would like to avoid terminal based solutions such as multiline and lnav

You could use less to tail a file. Just type 'tail ' and press shift+f to start tailing it. Ctrl+c to break out of tail while remaining in file. You can type forward slash to do a search forwards in the file, and ? to search backwards in file. Both searches will highlight search terms.
