O.P. Messenger Plus: How To Read a Text File?
Hi everyone! I'm new in developing for Messenger Plus, but I'm not new in developing applications. I need your help for a script: I use Parallels Desktop to virtualize Windows on my Intel Mac; I used to use Adium, but I need some key features included only in Windows Live Messenger for Windows. At the same time, I'd like to show the song I'm listening to in iTunes (on Mac OS X) in my personal message (in Windows Live Messenger on Windows).
My first idea is to build an application for Mac that reads the song playing in iTunes and write it to a text file; then the Messenger Plus script has to read that text file and set the personal message.

I searched everywhere, but I didn't find a way to read a text file in Messenger Plus: is it possible? If yes, how?

Thanks in advance!
