The server lady wants it that way. I create signed AWS URLs that are
secure and which access her APIs. So far we've only used POST, PUT, and
GET. Now we've added a "log out" function and I'm supposed to send the
URL with DELETE. She is floored that I can't do that:
"I can change it if you really don’t have DELETE, but I would find it
surprising. If you do have it, I’d prefer to keep it as DELETE since it
makes the most sense for the action."
Then she suggests using cURL but that won't work on mobile where we
can't use shell.
I wouldn't know where to start with tsNetCustom(), but I'll investigate.
Suggestions welcome, provided it works on mobile.

I haven't tested, but I'd think that 'delete URL "http://www.example.com/oldthings.txt
<http://www.example.com/oldthings.txt>"' should work.
You might need to pass along some auth:
delete URL "http://badwolf:swordf...@www.example.com/secretthings.txt
<http://badwolf:swordf...@www.example.com/secretthings.txt>"
If not, you can directly use TCP. It is as easy as a simple GET. It is as hard
as figuring out simple HTTP.
Or consider tsNetCustom() and use "DELETE" as the request.

Does tsNet support DELETE? If not, how would I do that?
