Why not create a batch file and call it as a timed event and have it
run the clean up commands. Then all you have to worry about is
executing the bat file.
You don't say if you're on Windows or linux but on Windows it should
be trivial, on linux it might even be easier to write a shell script
that calls dosemu and then runs your cleanup, if that's what is
required.

you can run a batchfile as the cleanup command.
can you link to the wiki page that says this please.
statements? Do I use an 'EXEC_XTRN <.bat>'
command within the src file? As you can probably tell, I'm a tad over my
you can actually use exec_int but dont do that
sometimes i do cleanup commands in the actual doorgames' batchfile
before everything runs because there are false inuse.flg files or whatever. ---
