I use the following script to call a BBS and have the script delete
a file after it is uploaded.
FN="C:\TM\HUB-BW.new"				  ;name of your file to upload
Waitfor 0                         ;wait until string matched
LOGON "c:\tm\hub2.log"			  ;name of your log file
Set AutoStop,On
WHEN "More [Y,n,=]? ","^M"
WHEN "Next bulletin [Y,n]? ","^M"
WHEN "Press ENTER to continue","^M"
WHEN "[y,N]? ","^M"
WHEN "download Now?","Y"
Waitfor "BBS, or wait a moment..." ;Binkley's prompt to press esc
Put "^[",						   ;press esc
Waitfor "What is your name: "
Put "Bill Eastman Y os2bill ^M"         ;your name Y PASSWORD ^M
Waitfor "Select: "
Put "B",                            ;tell Max you want BlueWave reader  
Waitfor "Select: "
fileexist FN,existflag              ;check to see if messages to upload       
        
if existflag                        ;if yes 
    Put "U",                        ;   tell Max Upload    
    SEND "Z",FN                     ;   tell Telemate to send file            
    IF SUCCESS                      ;   if upload ok 
        DELETE FN                   ;       delete it
    ENDIF                           ;   endif (upload ok)
    Waitfor "Select: "
ENDIF                               ;endif (msg to upload)
