(let's see I have no financial gain so no <plug> needed :) )
My SPOOK command file (in CSL and on jazz) does this:

:spook
SPOOK/iX Emulator  Version 4.2
Enter 'help new' to see the new features for this version.
spook(1): p @;daysold>=7
       spoolf @ ;SELEQ=[((OWNER=@)) AND DATE<=11/20/1996];SHOW ;DELETE
               spoolf @ ;SELEQ=[((OWNER=@)) AND DATE<=11/20/1996];SHOW ;DELETE
No qualified spoolfile(s). (CIWARN 4809)
spook(2):exit

You see above the simple SPOOK command I entered (p @;daysold>7) and the
derived SPOOLF command.  I'd be happy to get you a copy if you can't get
SPOOK from jazz.
