Have you ever seen the log viewer that comes with SMS?  The app is called
trace32.exe. It works in real time, updating the view as the log file is
updated.  It is specifically designed to use SMS logs, but will work with
any text file and allows searching, filtering and highlighting of entries. 
If you don't have access to it let me know and I'll upload it to binaries.
