[icecast] Song Metadata from 3rd party source?

[Nathan Paul Flood]

I am using a radio station automation system and icecast together to
broadcast our terrestrial signal through a network. The automation
system can send song title and artist data down the serial port or out
to a file every time the song changes, (it is BSI's WaveStation) how
can I take this data and add it to my icecast stream? (I am using
Darkice to encode) It either generates a file every couple of seconds
or pipes raw text data through the serial port. Is there a way to add
Metadata to a continuous stream once it has already started?
