I had a similar need recently, and of all the solutions I was suggested 
the one I liked most was using [sys_gui] by H.C.Steiner because the 
message you construct to delete a file is platform-independent.
You just send a message "file delete _filename_" to [sys_gui].
Also, it doesn't pop-up any shell window.
