Opening the file with notepad is easy:

<property name="logfile" value="log.txt"/>
<macrodef name="log">
    <attribute name="msg"/>
    <sequential>
        <echo file="${logfile}" append="true" 
message="@{msg}${line.separator}"/>
    </sequential>
</macrodef>
<macrodef name="notepad">
    <attribute name="file" default="${logfile}"/>
    <sequential>
        <exec executable="notepad" taskname="notepad">
            <arg value="${logfile}"/>
        </exec>
    </sequential>
</macrodef>

<log msg="one message"/>
<log msg="another message"/>
<notepad/>


But this is only possible on systems where notepad exists (means Windows).

You could also write a java application which shows the message and start that via 
<java>


Or create an HTML page and invoke firefox,safari or iexplore
