How about a shell script that edits the chat script..
#!/bin/sh
echo Enter your username:
read USER
echo Enter your password:
read PASS
sed -e "s/insert_password_here/$PASS/g" -e"s/insert_username_here/$USER/g"
/path/to/template/chat/script > /path/to/temp/chatscript
# (all that on one line)
/usr/bin/chat -f /path/to/temp/chatscript
rm /path/to/temp/chatscript
pppd
# Something like that should work pretty well..
