I've been suggesting that for about four years now (long before I ever started working for Digium), but the core Asterisk developers tell me it will have a very negative impact on Asterisk performance. I'd obviously like to see it use a different character to inform the dialplan parser that we're using a different pattern matching system, so that we can limit the performance impact to just those extensions that require it. But, for now, I've lived to learn to get along with the things that the dialplan provides. Don't forget that we have two different regex operators what we can use inside of an Asterisk dialplan expression. :-) exten => _X.,1,GotoIf($[${EXTEN} : /#+[2-7][0-9]{3}/]?happy) -- Jared Smith Community Relations Manager Digium, Inc. _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
