asterisk users - Mar 2005 - Dialout handler with/without leading 1

If this handles the case where 10 digits are required:

exten => _9NXXXXXXXXX,1,StripMSD,1

exten => _NXXXXXXXXX,2,Dial,Zap/4/BYEXTENSION

How do you create a handler which works for either this or
the case with a leading '1' plus 10 digits?

tnx

I'd start by looking at this material:

http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+config+extensions.conf

There are at least five other pages that relate closely to the
dialplan which is the most important aspect of asterisk configuration
(once you get it running).

A leading 1 + 10 digits would probably be something like this:

_1XXXXXXXXXX

Looking at applications docs, StripMSD is "deprecated", replaced by
the ${EXTEN:1} syntax.
