out from the external modem to my cell phone number. can it be done by
command line only or any script?

One way would be to install cu; ok one way might be to install cu.
I used to dial out with it during my Unix days and I'm assuming
the Linux version is the same. Blow dust of brain...
# cu -c /dev/pty2 5554455
the modem is attached to pty2 and the phone no is 5554455.
I recall /etc/uucp was where all the configs lived.

kermit can do this, and it has extensive scripting facilities.
You may even have it installed already; it depends on the type
of install you did.
