Well the only thing that I can say there, is....
  Read the DOCs. I am not real familar with the Script language. I do know
that it is very comprehensive and that it would not surprize me at all
if it was able to do so. I do know that it is able to run, with Telemate, a
BBS enviroment, so I do not see any reason wht it wouldn't solve your 
oblem.
 The reason that it stops, though, is that the script is looking for 
omething
 that did not show up. It will just stay there like you described.
 I hope that this helps you a little, at least.
