I would modify the suggestions slightly and either add to it, or replace the reference to voip-info with a link to https://wiki.asterisk.org
I was just thinking yesterday that voip-info seems out of date for many things I search for, but at this point I'm usually looking up things that are probably not used as frequently, so maybe the more "regular" stuff is more up-to-date on voip-info. In any case, the Asterisk Wiki seems quite up-to-date and useful. Also, you can quickly get some good info by doing "core show application <app>" or "core show function <func>" from the Asterisk console, like "core show application dial" gives you all the possible arguments for "Dial", including some useful notes. Quite handy. Josh On Wed, Apr 16, 2014 at 9:22 AM, Kevin Larsen < [email protected]> wrote: > > Thank you guys – your advice was spot on.
