Are you trying to send the "raw" file content to the browser in order to allow the users to save the file locally (download it), or are you trying to display the file content "inside" an HTML page, with navigation links around it, etc.?
If you want to send the raw content, take a look at extending Turbine's RawScreen class. Search the mail archives (http://www.mail-archive.com/turbine-user%40jakarta.apache.org/) for "RawScreen". If you are trying to display the file content inside an HTML page, is this somehow different from displaying any other data in the page? We don't use Velocity, but I would guess that you could use a Screen class to read the file content and create a variable in the Velocity context that contains the data. Then just have the corresponding .vm file that contains nothing but that variable. Not sure if this makes sense, but it might be a start.
