NAME

dialtest - FlexFAX dial string processing rules test program  

SYNOPSIS

bin/dialtest [ -a areacode ] [ -c countrycode ] [ -i internationalprefix ] [ -l longdistanceprefix ] [ -v ] dialrules  

DESCRIPTION

dialtest is an interactive program for the testing and development of dial string processing rules for use with FlexFAX. 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)''.

By default dialtest uses ``415'', ``1'', ``011'', and ``1'' for the area code, country code, international dialing prefix, and long distance dialing prefix, respectively. Alternative values can be specified on the command line with the -a, -c, -i, and -l options.

If the -v option is specified, dialtest will print each input line before displaying the results of applying the dial string rules to the input string. This can be useful, for example, in shell scripts.

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.
