asterisk users - Feb 2005 - Limit the call & recording when pressing *1

I'm testing two options from dial command and can not make them to work.

L(x[:y][:z]): Limit the call to 'x' ms, warning when 'y' ms are
left,
repeated every 'z' ms) Only 'x' is required, 'y' and
'z' are optional.
The following special variables are optional for limit calls: (pasted
from app_dial.c) 

w: Allow the called user to start recording after pressing *1 or what
defined in features.conf (Asterisk > v1.0.x)

for example I've tired:
exten => 21,1,Dial(${phone1},20,r,w)
exten => 21,1,Dial(${phone1},20,r,L(5[:4][:1]))

but none is working.

I've *-1.0.5 but I can not find app_dial.c nor features.conf contains
any define recording options.

I think should be:
exten => 21,1,Dial(${phone1},20,r,L(5:4:1))

The [] mean the parameter is optional, but you don't use them when
specifying the values.

Try: 

exten => 21,1,Dial(${phone1},20,rw)

Options should be combined.   

and

exten => 21,1,Dial(${phone1},20,rwL(300000:240000:60000))

This limits the call to five minutes, warning every 60 seconds when four
minutes are remaining.  Keep in mind that time is specified in milliseconds.
(FYI:  There are 60,000 milliseconds in a minute.)
