Re: [hylafax-users] calling card use with hylafax

[Bob Gamble <kiksadiweb@xxxxxxxxx>]

I guess people use the client-side software to send calling card info.  I downloaded hylafsp and it does have a section for your calling card.  I need to test it but I'm sure it will work.

It would be cool if there were open-source clients that handled calling cards.  So far I haven't found any.  I read a post (http://bit.ly/ce5ZyZ) suggesting writing your own client.  I wouldn't mind eventually...I suppose if using windows only you could use VB.  I just don't know where to start with it.

I'm rambling now.  If any one sees this and has suggestions on passing calling card info from a client I'd appreciate it.

Hello,

I have done much searching trying to figure out how to send my calling card info with a long distance number.  I see many posts showing how to strip the calling card info, but I cannot figure out how to even use calling card info.

I am assuming when I start a number with "1" it will know this is long distance.  I'm pretty sure I will edit the dialrules file for this.  And from what I've read, the line would start with:

^[1]${Country}${AreaCode}&...

but after that is what I am unsure of how to complete.   And I can be completely off track with the above.

Thanks for any help.  I will keep on searching in the meantime.
