How about:
<cffile action="READ" file="[your path here]" variable="fileText">
<cfset varList="">
<cfset startPos=1>
<cfloop condition="REFindNoCase("~[^~]+~", fileText, startPos)">
<cfset match=REFindNoCase("~[^~]+~", fileText, startPos,"TRUE")>
<cfset varList=varList & "," & Mid(fileText, match.pos[1],
match.len[1])>
<cfset startPos=match.pos[1]+match.len[1]>
</cfloop>
Haven't tested it, but maybe a good starting place. Should return a
comma-separated list of the variables.
