DIALTEST(8)
NAME
dialtest - HylaFAX dial string processing rules test program
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/dialtest [ options ] dialrules
DESCRIPTION
dialtest is an interactive program for the testing and development of dial string processing rules used by HylaFAX. dialtest reads the file of rules specified on the command line and then prompts for a dial string. For each string typed in, dialtest prints the result of applying the canonicalization and dial-string preparation rule sets. A rule set whose name is setname can be specified by typing ``setname(string)''; for example, ``CanonicalName(+1.415.965.7824)''.
Note that dialtest reads the rules file only when it is initially
started up. This means that dialtest must be restarted for it to apply
changes to a rules file.
OPTIONS
- -a code Use code as the value of AreaCode in the rules file. The
- default area code is ``415''.
- -c code Use code as the value of CountryCode in the rules file. The
- default country code is ``1''.
- -i prefix Use prefix as the value of InternationalPrefix in the rules
- file. The default international dialing prefix is ``011''.
- -l prefix Use prefix as the value of LongDistancePrefix in the rules
- file. The default long distance dialing prefix is ``1''.
- -q Be quiet, suppressing most all output except for the actual
- results. This is useful for using dialtest in an automated fashion.
- -v Print each input line before displaying the results of apply
- ing the dial string rules to the input string. This can be useful, for example, in shell scripts.
