WINALDL Plugin request

WinALDL is a program for displaying OBD data for 160 baud ECUs. It reads data from the serial port and can be configured to log it to a text file.
The text file is a fixed-width file, the first row contains column headings. I'd like to be able to parse this file in real-time and output select values to PalmOrb via LCD Smartie to make a "digital dashboard" of sorts.
Any examples of file I/O and outputting this to the LCD? It could just always read the last line in the file to get the latest data. Thanks.
