A _long_ time ago someone published a list of dial codes buried in asterisk that supposedly had some of these functions. Something like *8# = call pickup, *73 = pstn call forwarding, *78 = pstn flash, etc. (I just made up those codes, they aren't real, and I can't find that list now.) Does anyone have that list and is flash embedded in that? I'm thinking it was.
