Yes, sorry, I was quoting this off of the top of my head (to simplify
it) without looking at my code. I do set a variable and then
SetCIDName in the continuation of the dialplan.

That fixed it! Man, I thought I had tried this combination of \'s and
" but obviously not. Thank you for that, my underscores are a thing of
the past now.

I would be in favor of this! I think Asterisk::AGI is a great tool for
the Asterisk community. This allows novice programmers like myself to
jump into writing AGI's with little effort. Anything that can be done
to further the development of this project would be of great benefit
to the community. James built a great framework, but the project has
sat stagnant for a long time.
