I was able to use the Points to Path plugin to create a simple line with a label in the middle:
Here is the very simple text file I used:
ID;GEOM "BL2990";"LINESTRING(490206.73 214102.673, 490236.94 214134.576)"
The problem is I can't recreate this again? I get the following error:
Dependent field could not be populated.
How do I fix this error?
This might provide some clues but I can't figure it out:

Perhaps I have to create a layer first.
I like this approach because it is one file and I don't have a lot of steps like importing a text delimited file and then have to connect them and such.
