This is somewhat unique to the site installation. For example, I don't 
have *69 programmed at my site because frankly there's no need for it 
with the Cisco 7960's.


I do however have an automatic conference booking utility and a speaking 
clock. Not often found in smaller sites.


I think you are on your own here.

I think you are on your own here.

If one is implementing an Asterisk solution in an office scenario, it 
has to have fairly similar features to another Asterisk installation. 
It's easy enough to edit and remove the parts that are different. What I 
am suggesting is a comprehensive Here's everything Asterisk can do out 
of the box document, change or remove what doesn't apply.


Let me know if any of you want to pool the work we have already done, I 
will compile to a complete document and post on the wiki.

I'm planning on implementing an Asterisk system at a couple of small 
offices, and a couple of homes, in the near future... and I don't have 
any documentation yet. What you're suggesting sounds wonderful, to me. I 
would contribute, if I had anything... but making it an inclusive manual 
would be a good idea, I think... you can always edit/remove sections. :)

Hey, compile is what computers do, not humans. :-)

Is there any existing program that could either from /etc/asterisk or
using the manager interface figure out enough about the asterisk
configuration to generate such a manual (using some templating engine)?

Get the handbooks pdf's files, open and modify it regarding your
configuration, and put that on a web page accessible for everyone on the
office.

You can look for the files on Voip-info.org

I've often thought it would be nice to have a program that takes all the 
extensions asks a question about which zap are extensions and which are 
lines, whihc are your trunks etc and then compiles a 1 page extension list.


Even just for myself this would be usefull as I have totally run out of 
numbering space on one of my dev machines and often move around/rename 
extensions.


The idea would be to do a show dialplan via the manager and parse it for 
various applications/dial lines.  Obviously the applications would be 
easy to do, but the dial lines would require user interaction.


I guess you would also need some way to set the perspective from which 
it is viewed.  I.E. Looking from the internal context you would have 
available X.  I don't think people would need a list of the IVR numbers 
etc from outside, although if you could select a start context you could 
do this too.
