I have an application that writes data to a text file. Essentially, I want to grab results from that file and write them to a MySQL database. Cron is out of the question, since it only runs in minute intervals. The file is not written to *every* second but I need the information logged to a database as it's written to the text file.

 

Would PHP work for this or is there a better alternative?
