Need software to read coords from GPS

I have a Magellan 315 GPS, I connect it via serial to download waypoints. What I am looking for is (free) software that can read the coords from the GPS and write them to a file (preferably). I've looked a little for one, If I cannot find one i will end up writing my own. Thanks.
 
There was an article in Linux Journal a few months back about several GPS projects. I'd look for that and run a search on Freshmeat
 
I've decided im writing my own NMEA 2.2 innterpreter program that will read a datastream from (most) GPSs and output in a variety of formats. I'll post it here once im done with it.

Again I'd have a look at that linux stuff - may not be the platform that you want, but it's open source, so may be a good reference.
