Brian, Have you considered writing a program/script that launches the slon and then read slon's stdout/stderr as a stream thus seeing each line of output as slon outputs it? I have a java application that does type of thing and so far it seems to be working well (though I haven't yet gotten to writing the code to detecting interesting events from the slon output) Launching a subprocess and reading from its output stream can be done in a few lines of perl or python.
