Hi there,

I?ve been looking to do an outbound dialer for systems alerting, etc. and
have in large part followed the recipe here:
http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Asterisk+auto-dial+out

That and the associated pages at voip-info give a basic set of recipes for
callfiles, but nowhere there or in my copy of the O?Reilly book by Meggelen,
Madsen, & Smith can I find a detailed discussion of what goes into a
callfile, how to get it to do things like interact with the shell (I?d like
?Press 2? in my outbound call to do something of value), etc.  I?ve googled
around but haven?t found what I?m looking for, just other people?s ?Hello
World? callfiles.  As of now, I can make outbound calls well enough, but
want more...

Can someone point me in the right direction for this?

Thanks,
Mike
