Well, the chat script should be just a list of "expect"/"send" strings.
If you want to wait for (ie, expect) a ">" and then send your userID, you
should be able to accomplish this with: 

	">" $login ">" $passwd

(Of course, you need to substitute real values for the symbols.)

There're other things that can go in the chat script.  For example, here's
the script I use.  I run a preprocessor shell script against this file
which reads the values for $NUMBER, $LOGIN and $PASSWD from another
location and then uses sed to perform the substitutions.

	ABORT BUSY
	ABORT 'NO CARR'
	ABORT 'NO DIAL'
	REPORT DIA
	REPORT CAR 
	REPORT CONN 
	REPORT BUS
	TIMEOUT 5
	"" AT
	OK-+++\c-OK-+++\c-OK-AT-OK ATH0
	OK AT&FE1V1L1M0&A3&B1H0
	OK ATDT$NUMBER
	TIMEOUT 40
	ogin:--ogin: $LOGIN
	word: $PASSWD
