I think it should be "core dogs show black". Seriously though, I think you make a good point.

I mean, Seriously? (in a Grey's Anatomy kind of way...) The old syntax was inconsistent -- "show manager command" vs "sip show channels" and just plain bad -- for example "sip reload" should have been "reload sip." The new syntax continues down the noun-verb path instead of correcting itself and using verb-noun like most other applications (MySQL, GDB, Oracle, etc.) Then, just to make it worse, now I have to learn which commands somebody (arbitrarily) decided are "core" and which are not -- for what benefit? Certainly doesn't make MY job easier! Approach the command line like a noob. I want Asterisk to show me something so I'll start the command line with "show." I'm not quite sure what I'm doing, so I'll press <TAB> to see what I can show. Oh, "channel" looks like what I want. Hmm, too much. Maybe I should have qualified what kind of channel I'm looking for BEFORE the word "channel." Here's a suggestion -- stop thinking like a parser and start thinking like a person :) Which makes more sense (at least in English)? 1) show black dogs -- show sip channels 2) black show dogs -- sip show channels 3) dogs black show -- channels sip show 4) show dogs black -- show channels sip 5) black dogs show -- sip channels show 6) dogs show black -- channels show sip Is it too late to fix this for 1.6?
