You may consider rolling your own on this one. If on Unix, you might
have a script that does this:

#!/usr/bin/ksh
# Remove TEMP files
if [ "$1" = '' ] ; then
   echo "usage: $0 FILENAME(s) (separated by a space or LF)
   exit 1
fi

for i in $1
  do
    echo Removing $i
    cd $UVACCOUNT ; # Change this to the account or prompt for it
    rm -r $i
    rm -r D_$i
    uv "DELETE VOC "$i
done

There may need a couple of other things added, especially if you have
security options in the account, but TEMP files probably shouldn't be
stored in a production account but rather in a subdirectory/filesystem
somewhere else.

Just my two bits.
