I think you should consider destar: http://destar.berlios.de/ It depends on python/quixote/medusa for working, but it could be easy to adapt it and remove the gui part for run it in text mode (destar -b). The configuration is stored in a file. And the sqlite dependencie is for CDR management. It is going to be hard to store the cdr records on flat files, I think so :p You can also contact us on #destar in the freenode net.
