Several years ago when I last used Telesys, my login script was:

ABORT BUSY
ABORT NO
'' '\n\n'
'' ATZ
OK ats11=50l1
OK atdt*70,,475-9996
ername: [mytelesysid]
ssword: \q[mytelesyspassword]\q
> 'terminal download'
> 'ppp default'

I had configured pppd and chat by hand, since I wasn't using KDE.  This
format has the expect as the first portion of the line and the send as the
second.  I've not used Telesys in a while, and therefore don't know if
they've changed things enough that this login script would no longer work,
but I had good luck with it.  As far as I know, the dialup server and pppd
begin the ppp negotiation after my script gives the 'ppp default' command,
so another expect line wasn't needed.  Does simply removing 'expect "~--"'
from your script work?
