Try the following (you'll need to add some protective code):
ITextFileBufferManager manager= FileBuffers.getTextFileBufferManager();
IPath location= iFile.getFullPath();
manager.connect(location, new NullProgressMonitor());
textFileBuffer= manager.getTextFileBuffer(location);
document= textFileBuffer.getDocument();
and modify the document directly. This works for editors that use a
TextFileDocumentProvider.

The code snippet shows how to access the document. Once you have the
document you can modify it and listen to document changes.
