The zero is added before ${EXTEN}.

I have only ever used the stable versions and have always done it this way.


Never trust anyone that tells you to use the r option to dial.  It's a 
classic newbie mistake.  In this case, he is correct about how to prefix 
a digit.


Here is an example of what happens when you use r when dialing out an 
analog port to a busy number.


Caller hears a ringing sound (ringback) when Asterisk is dialing the digits.

Caller hears a busy tone when Asterisk is finished dialing.

May you have the peace and freedom that come from abandoning all hope of having

 Hi ,

 thank you for your answer,

 If Prefix() command is only in CVS-HEAD, then how can you prepend leading 
 digits in a stable version?

 It does not make any sense not to have this feature in a version downloaded 
 from thw Digium FTP site...

 Budoka.
